1964 Corvair Convertible on 2040-cars
Lompoc, California, United States
Vehicle Title:Clear
Make: Chevrolet
Drive Type: rear wheel drive
Model: Corvair
Mileage: 70,000
Trim: Convertible
Up for sale I have a 1964 Corvair Convertible. The car has, I believe, a 1963 van or truck 102 HP engine. The engine code is T090IV. I know that it has 63 102 HP cylinder heads as I had to remove the right head to have a dropped valve seat repaired. Besides the valve it has new points, plugs, plug wires, distributor cap and the carbs have been rebuilt. It starts and runs well. The 4 speed transmission and the differential are I believe original to the car. The rear brakes have new shoes as when I acquired the car one shoe had thrown its lining. The front brakes are in good shape with lots of lining left. I repaired some rust in the back sear area behind the driver seat. This was an area about 6 to 8 inches square. the rest of the floor boards are solid. There is some rust in the floor of the trunk and on the front edge of the trunk lid. I repainted the interior and made new door panels, removed the instrument panel cleaned it and repainted it and installed new black carpet. The convertible top is, I think, original to the car. It goes up and down without a problem and has no rips or tears in it and for being almost 50 years old looks great. It could use a new plastic rear window. The tires will need to be replace, they hold air but I would not drive very far on them. This would be a great low cost car to get into the restoration hobby. Parts are easy to find and there is lots of help out there. I have a clear California title to the car. Feel free to ask questions.

2015 Chevy Tahoe gets Police Patrol Vehicle treatment
Thu, 07 Nov 2013That was fast. Mere days after showing a Police Concept based on the 2015 Tahoe at the SEMA Show, Chevrolet has announced that it will build a PPV model based on the SUV to do battle with the Ford Police Interceptor Utility (Explorer) and Dodge Durango Special Service.
You'll recall that the Tahoe has been police staple for several years, predating both the Explorer and Durango police variants, so the fact that the new model would spawn a police variant is hardly surprising. Like the civilian model, the 2015 PPV benefits from a more efficient 5.3-liter, direct-injection V8 that pumps out 355 horsepower and 383 pound-feet of torque. It also features more high-strength steel, offering better crash protection, on top of optional safety items like lane departure warning, forward collision alert and a Safety Alert Seat.
The press release is rather light on police-specific items, aside from the auxiliary battery, which keeps the myriad of electronics in a modern police car running even when the engine isn't. Lightbars, 17-inch steel wheels on Goodyear Eagle RS-A tires and a push bar round out the mods for the Tahoe PPV. The cabin features a revised center console and room for laptop and other equipment mounts.
Chevy Camaro is a good sport, wishes Ford Mustang Happy 50th
Tue, 15 Apr 2014It was 1966 when Chevrolet launched its challenger to the wildly successful Ford Mustang, the Camaro. While the competition between the two brands was already healthy, the arrival of the Camaro set off one of the most intense, model-to-model rivalries in the industry.
That competitive spirit hasn't stopped Chevy and the Camaro from wishing Ford's iconic muscle car a Happy 50th Birthday as the Ford's April 17 anniversary rolls around. These two cars have been linked over the years, and while the rivalry took a break for a few years in the 2000s, today's competition between the Camaro and Mustang is as fierce as it's ever been.
You might recall that this friendliness when it comes to major milestones isn't too rare. Ford put on quite a display for General Motors' hundredth anniversary back in 2008. As the Camaro's fiftieth birthday approaches in 2016, we wouldn't be surprised to see the Mustang sending its best wishes to its Bowtie rival.
