Our new Greenbrier Take 2

[Jorm]

Hi Folks,

First post, we got a 63 Greenbrier and we also have a 65 Corsa Turbo Coupe. Yes, pictures were hosted at astrosafari hence the watermark. We have a 91 Astro LT van too, well we have a few vans, all GM along with some GM station wagons and trucks. Looks like hosting the pic there doesn't work hence my second try, with attached pictures.

Anyways this is about the Greenbrier all pictures are from the seller, we will ship out the van late February to avoid it arriving to Rotterdam when its still full "winter". Very happy with it and it's also our fav Greenbrier color, turquoise, though even better if it was two-tone.

She is in pretty good shape rust wise, lots of surface rust from baking in the California sun. Chrome is decent, there are minor dents but shut lines are pretty straight.

Interior is ok, front seat has been at least partially reupholstered in the past, the rear is original but torn. Door panels are savable with a bit of work. We have the third rearward bench seat, but it's just the frame.

The engine is a 102HP engine and if I interpret the serial number it's the correct engine for this year of Corvair 95. Its missing it's oil bath cleaner :(.

What is funny is the cowl plate. I don't get why trim is std either its wrong or somebody made a really good job turning this into a deluxe Greenbrier (yes in close-ups you see the front windshield rubber must at some point had a molding, and there are holes for the reflexes on the rear doors. There are no ashtrays in the back though and no sign of there ever been, same is with rear armrest no signs of there been any either. Checking the VIN and ours van is built in St. Luise.
