67 CORVAIR with an SBC 327 installed in the rear-seat area via a KELMARK bellhousing.  This vehicle was running (under V8 power) until we decided to rebuild the engine.  We lost our workspace and are tired of paying to store it.  Our original plan was to get everything worked out and running then transfer the drivetrain to a perfect-body late model Corvair.


This is an almost-complete project for a street racer.  Rebuilt 327 has never been fired.   New internally regulated alternator and new distributor are included but not installed.  Exhaust is complete.  Body is in need of minor repair and paint.

There is no interior or dash.

A new aluminum radiator is supplied but not installed.

Shift linkage needs to be built.

The engine and transaxle mounts are all done and very cleanly installed.  There are no unfinished or sharp sheet metal edges as found in many of these conversions.  See the pics.


Title is clear.  There is no key for the trunk or ignition.

This project must be flatbed-trailered from Arlington Heights, Il, about 40 miles NW of Chicago.


This is your chance to finish a Corvair V8 at a VERY LOW PRICE.

Corvette Stingray designer lists five goals of new exterior shape

Fri, 12 Apr 2013

Redesigning an icon is a difficult task, especially when you've got a blank sheet of paper in front of you and the all-new C7 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray is intended to be your final objective.
General Motors has released a new short video featuring Kirk Bennion of the Corvette's exterior design team, talking about the challenges of sculpting Chevrolet's new flagship sports car and the five goals the team had to keep in mind as it worked. In the end, Bennion's team had the pleasure of seeing their hard work take center stage as the Corvette captured the world's eyes at the Detroit Auto Show earlier this year.

Vert-A-Pac train cars kept your Chevy Vega's price in check

Fri, 01 Mar 2013

Our apologies to those who've seen this before, but for the rest of the class, how awesome are these pictures of the Vert-A-Pac shipping system General Motors came up with to ship the Chevrolet Vega back in the 1970s? Developed along with Southern Pacific Railroad, GM was able to double the amount of Vega models it could ship by packing them into the unique storage cars vertically.
At the time, rail cars could fit 15 vehicles each, but Chevrolet was able to lower shipping costs by making it possible to ship 30 Vegas per rail car, in turn allowing the price of the Vega to remain as low as possible. Each rail car had 30 doors that would fold down so that a Vega could be strapped on, and then a forklift would come along and lift the door into place. All the cars were positioned nose down, and since they were shipped with all of their required fluids, certain aspects had to be designed specifically for this type of shipping, including an oil baffle in the engine, a special battery and even a repositioned windshield washer reservoir. See for yourself in our image gallery above.

GM recalling nearly 4,000 vehicles over airbag concerns

Thu, 31 Jan 2013

Four different General Motors vehicles from the 2012 model year are being recalled over a potential airbag issue. The driver's side airbag shorting bar in the 2012 Buick Verano and 2012 Chevrolet Camaro, Cruze and Sonic might make contact with the airbag terminals, even during a crash. If so, the airbag won't deploy when it should, possibly increasing injury to the driver.
The recall is expected to begin on February 13 for the 3,896 units that might be affected. GM will notify owners who can then take their vehicles to dealers to have the airbag coil replaced. A bulletin from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration below has more info.
