Why This Car Is Special

The Chevrolet Corvair was a compact car manufactured by Chevrolet for model years 1960–1969 in two generations. A response to the Volkswagen Beetle, it remains the only American-designed, mass-produced passenger car with a rear-mounted, air-cooled engine.

The name “Corvair” originated as a portmanteau of Corvette and Bel Air, with the “air” part referenced the engine’s cooling system.

We have a great restored 1967 Chevrolet Corvair 500 here at Skyway Classics with the 95 horsepower air cooled engine, black interior, Rally wheels, and an automatic transmission for less than the price of a new car.

Mechanical

Under the hood beats a 95 horsepower rear-mounted air-cooled 164 cubic inch flat-six engine backed by an automatic transmission.

Chevrolet put in the Corvair something truly different. The rear-mounted air-cooled flat-six motor is set up for a lower center of gravity, and some Porsche-style handling fun, has a large rev range, looks as it did back when it was new with the black factory air cleaner system, electric cooling fans, carb system and intake, and factory exhaust.

It sits in a very neat, clean, painted and detail engine compartment and looks like it did back then while riding on the Chevrolet Rally wheels with Cooper Cobra Radial black sidewall performance tires.

Interior

The interior on this Corvair consists of the black split bench seat and matching back seats and door panels, the factory dual cowl dash that borrows styling from the Corvette factory dash with all the gauges and instruments, stainless trim, black carpets, factory black/chrome steering wheel, and Chevrolet logo radio.

Exterior

Corvairs always turn heads wherever they go and this one does too with its professional restoration that had the Nantucket light blue paint applied over the coupe body that gives it a nice mix of European and American styling to give it a sports car-like appearance as well as having nice chrome front and rear bumpers, Corvair 500 badging, and the front gas tank door.
