Corvair Forum

Considering the small number of properly sized 13" street tires now available on the market, and the huge number of choices in 14", 15", 16", or 17" high-quality, high performance tires and wheels that can be fitted to Corvairs, I think the only reason to stay with a 13" tire size would be either ...

Hey folks, due to a combination of my mechanic having no room to work on this car in his garage, and the fact that I have a daughter who became disabled from a car accident, I’m going to be moving cross country and looking to sell this Corvair.

The KH original wheels I know are desirable and ...

Thanks. I’ll pass that along to my mechanic.

We have spark and compression. What fuel was left was like tar, so new fuel tank and systems is the next step. Here is a pic after a bath. Will need a full detail inside and out, but we are making progress.

Could you please post a pic of the rear area where the exhaust is? I want to compare the cutout area to my ‘63. Thanks.

Thanks for the info. My first order of business is finding someone who will help me get this running. This is proving to be a task. I have connections for other cars, but they don’t want to take this on. I’m not going to be able to do the work myself. I’ve contacted the president of the local ...

While doing some research, I came across this. This was my dad’s and I sold it to Gary Zeller on eBay. I do not know him, but I washed this Rampy enough times that I’d know it anywhere. Note the marker lights and bedliner. https://youtu.be/DODABSb7PZU

I’ve attached a pic I took before I sold it ...

I have an extra set of nicer KH wheels I will put on and some spare hubcaps and parts kicking around.

It has a 64 interior from another Corvair he had. He had a Clark’s book and some parts. It’s always been garaged ...

I sold many of my late daddy’s cars, including a nice Rampy and Deluxe Greenbrier Van. This Spyder has been in storage and not registered since 1983. I shipped it from Texas and it’s on it’s way to my home in Oregon, near Portland and Salem.

I’m looking for someone in that area who is familiar ...

Thank you 64powerglide! I wasn't quite sure on the original colors and appreciate the info. It's currently red/red/white. I also know the seats have been replaced with 64 seats.

Here are some pics. She has been in storage for years. My father had many autos and this was a project he never finished ...

Would anyone care to decode this for me? I have most, but not all of it figured out. At least I think I do. I have a Willow Run 63 Spyder Turbo Convertible so far. Not sure on the rest...paint, interior, top, etc. Any help is appreciated.

It looks like an original 1963 Spyder convertible is equipped with rare Kelsey-Hayes wire wheels! If the car is a California car and generally rust-free, those wheels may add significantly to the value of the car! Don't attempt to start it with stale fuel and fluids. The turbocharged engine should ...
