Beautiful CORSA & man is that ever playing some serious music to a motor head! love the color combination as well & the Corvair is still the most exotic automobile ever built in the USA
@@corsaracercorvair3320 aww snapp Yenko! I'd like to own one one day is this a restoration mod or did you buy? I'd like to own a few corvairs myself if possible!
Beautiful! I had a 1965 Corsa bought new in 65. Silver with black interior. 4 single barrel carbs. Loved all the gauges. Also had a 1964 Monza. Also a 4 speed. The 64 had a leaf spring that went between the rear wheels. The 65 had rear suspension completely changed. They were both great little cars. Drove all over the country with them.
Terrific. I had a 65 but not the Corsa. Always wanted one or a Monza Spyder. Too busy working and raising 5 kids! I finally got a Focus ST and tuned & modded it. But the Corvair was a real sweet little car.
My family had a 140 Corvair about 1968. I loved driving it and it handled really well. Ralph Nader bought into a Ford Motors propaganda film when he talked Corvair down.
I think the original looking wheel width is the best. I will do my best to lower my Corvair for the correct stance, not sure though about road clearance with the Clark's headers. I have look around a lot and really like the wheel size you are running. Looks like about 225/50-17?
Beautiful car there. I assume you are running headers? You using trimmed heater tin to fit around headers? I had a 66' Corsa in my youth. Center mount Holley 4 barrel, headers, quick steer arm, posi, "wood" telescoping steering wheel, 14" chev ralley wheels.
I have a 66 turbo corsa, 3rd owner. My turbo is 180 horse, that's why they didn't sell to guys backnthen. You could get a 289 mustang with a 2 bbl carb & have 215 horse, with a 4 bbl you'd get 225 horse. If GM engineering would have put some work in on this car, they truly could have made an American Porche BUT then it wouldn't have sold for 3,000.oo, probably more like 6,000.oo or more. So GM marketed it to the women. You saw colors light Twilight beige, Evening Orkid, Chiffon lemon. My dad bought a 64 monza 110 4 speed for my eldest sister in September of 65. Maroon with black interior & rally sport rims, she thought she was so HOT!! at 16. Well she kinda was!!
That’s a cool story, back then when they were new most guys wanted muscle cars and V/8 powered with lots of horsepower. The Corvair was a compact economy car.
@@pettyguy64 everyone thinks it has a V/8 in it. Love to mess with them, people ask if it does and I say well I’ll let you be the judge and I open up the deck lid and their eyes pop out of there head, and I love it.
@@corsaracercorvair3320 I am doing a resto-mod on a 66. I already have the American Flat Six Tribute heads and will be running the Clarks header through Flowmasters. How were these reduced? Only at the inlet or lengthwise. It seems they would have to be cut down a bit...but not having a set of headers yet I am not sure. Also are the 40 Series louder then the Delta Flow? I am seriously using your car as inspiration. My 66 is a Monza 140/4 speed with factory A/C which I am modifying to use the Vintage AIr unit up front, with the condenser moved up front as well, just FYI.
thats really sweet amigo !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! wonder how it sounds inside ?? i dont like noisey exhaust''s i like my power smooth, linear and as quiet as poss !!! i want to enjoy company & good tunes . but she is a babe !!
Nader was a hinderance not a helper. His intentions was to make a name for himself. But the tinkers and thinkers and engineers proved what he really was. The Corvair was one of my favorite cars I owned. And I am a MOPAR person. Still the Corvair always is the car I would love to have again. It drove good, it handled good and it was good on gas mileage and was really comfortable. What vices it had, GM ironed them out which made this little monster ever better.
LOL - This idle sounds beastly, but at the same time, in idle this thing takes as much fuel as an european TDI does going at speed. Terrible fuel economy in those things
Well you have to figure that back when the Corvair was new back in the 60s that no American car was getting that good of gas mileage . Even today’s standard that’s not to bad for a 50 plus year old car.
@@corsaracercorvair3320 Well, you know its funny, corvair supposedly was an "economy car" yet it had a V8, its hilarious. V8 in europe were reserved to luxury cars, sports cars, and in general high end cars...
Such a clean design. Clean lines. No grill. No extra chrome. Beautiful.
I totally agree with you 100%
Yea,like the chrome removed
Beautiful CORSA & man is that ever playing some serious music to a motor head! love the color combination as well & the Corvair is still the most exotic automobile ever built in the USA
Thank you, I love Corvairs , they were my first love .
So your a Motor head and I'm a Greaser from Detroit and we understand the same language. ;)
Yep, I understand completely 👍
These cars are so weird and so cool at the same time. Someone was really thinking outside the box with an air cooled rear engine car from GM
Yeah they are different, but that’s what I like about them. European looking but American made . Ed Cole was the man behind the Corvair.
@@corsaracercorvair3320 And they handle like a dream!
OMG this two tone Corvair is beautiful! I laughed outloud when I saw the license plate! Love it !
Thank you , the license plate was the icing on the cake.

Absolutely beautiful!
Damned underappreciated cars
Yes unfortunately they are , everyone likes muscle-cars, Corvairs are so over looked.
Nice ride Yo. When a Corvair sits low and level, it's actually a pretty good looking rod/stance.
That they do.
That's a hell of a cam you got in that thing!!! NICE MACHINE!
Yeah she’s rowdy lol, thank you.
Terrific. I had a 65 but not the Corsa. Always wanted one or a Monza Spyder. Too busy working and raising 5 kids! I finally got a Focus ST and tuned & modded it. But the Corvair was a real sweet little car.

She’s gorgeous
Thank you
Ohhhhh that’s what I’m talkin’ bout!!! Love the cam too, beautiful Corvair!!!😍✝️
Thank you, 👍
One of the baddest, non-Yenko's out there!
Thanks man , I think so too.
Tastefully done corvair. 👍🏾
That is a masterpiece. We had a Lakewood wagon when I grew up and it was great. I later got a 500 in `75. Haaaa
Thank you .

Which flow masters are you using? And what size inlet and outlet? I love the sound and am looking for something similar
I owned a piece of this history, a 66’ Monza. Seriously the only lacking in the car was more serious hp. Like 250.
I love the custom plate haha.
Yeah that’s the icing on the cake lol
Sounds great
Thank you.
Very nice
Matches my 64 bug. Love it!
Heck yeah 👍
It's beautiful. Too bad it had such a bad rap in the 60's. To me, it's the most european-looking domestic car that GM produced.
I agree with you 100%.
If it has the IRS it's as "safe" as anything at the time. The solid axle should have never been put on it.
@@scobo4743 yeah I agree this one is all IRS
A beauty . A buddy had a Corvair with a stock turbo bow rare is that .
You don’t see a lot of turbo Corvair s but they are out there
I think there were only 100 ever made.
That is one sweet ride

Yes I agree with you.
Sharp!!
Not weird just well engineered and thought out there’s a reason the late models are know as poor man’s Porsche
