The Chevrolet Corvair is arguably one of America’s more controversial Sixties cars. Introduced in 1960, it soon drew the attention of Ralph Nader, who dedicated an entire chapter in his book about the Corvair’s handling shortcomings. General Motors responded by updating the Corvair for the 1965 model year, giving it an all-new independent rear suspension that banished the famous lift-off oversteer issue. So, if you’ve been interested in the Chevy Corvair’s good looks and rear-engined configuration, this 1965 Chevrolet Corvair Corsa is the best candidate to grace your garage.
The Corvair’s low sweeping lines are the work of Bill Mitchell and his team, and they’ve produced an American icon that could compete with its European sports car counterparts. This particular 1965 Chevrolet Corvair Corsa comes to you as a convertible, with red paint and a white convertible top. Folding up the top, you will see a clear rear vinyl window peering into the well kept interior, a testament to how well the car’s been looked after. It certainly looks the part, with its quad headlamps, ample servings of chrome, and body-colored wheel rims. There are few hints about the rear-engined design, save for the overall length of the rear quarters, the front fender-mounted fuel filler cap, and of course some cooling vents in the rear valance area. The red theme continues into the car’s four-seat cabin, which includes a full gauge pack, a wood-trimmed gear shift knob, and a retro-modern push-button radio. That’s it, really. There’s no digital instrument cluster or wireless phone integration to contend with. Instead, you’ve got an airy glasshouse, slim pillars, and plush cloth seats to lounge about in. The trunk of the car is located at the front, and is very spacious too. It’s not hard to see why many Corvairs were used as a family’s daily driver, enthusiastically embarking on school, office, and grocery runs day-in, day-out.
The rear-mounted engine of this 1965 Chevrolet Corvair Corsa is the 164ci Turbo-Air flat-six with a factory rated 140HP that saw a recent tune up towards the end of 2023. The engine powers the rear wheels via a 4-speed manual gearbox. Furthermore, the 1965 model year saw the controversial swing-axle rear suspension replaced by a fully independent set-up, with coil springs at each wheel. The 1965 model year also introduced larger brakes, for better stopping power.
