My 65 Corsa clone. Started out life as a 3 speed 110 in Oakland, CA. Lovingly restored in the 80s, and awaiting my ability to give it a fresh paint job in the future. It's a 10 footer. Powder coated engine tins, and Roger's linkage system.
EDIT: After seeing the beautiful 66 and it's interior shots, decided to add some to my post. New carpet last fall, and DynaMat added to rear seat area.
I have installed but not yet activated a full electronic ignition system, that will also control TBI system behind the back seat, and installed an angled hinged access panel that also contains 2 6x9 speakers. Pictures added. One engine shot (the pesky sideways one) shows my new internally-regulated alternator test fit but the pulley was not installed yet. Be assured that is done.

My 66 corvair... restored from ground up... using 90% clark's corvair parts. Done myself with no previous knowledge on corvair engines,... this had 1 carb and I returned to original 4 carbs... what a journey... family car since new. Sandblasted and replaced every single part that was available from suspension to interior. Everything else was restored.

Beautiful custom interior in your 66. I have cloth inserts in mine as well, much more comfortable vs the black vinyl.
