1965 HARDTOP.... into the future!! The next generation of Vair drivers is here ! This 65 was recently purchased by 18-year old Bene from Texas, with a little help from her Dad , that is. After struggling to get her new ride tuned -up and running, they finally found the right mechanic here at Rafee Corvair, the Man!! What can I say, if it's Corvair, I can fix it & put it back on the road, where it belongs ! After tuning the carburetors , setting the timing & replacing the old starter, Bene was able to take the wheel and test drive her new ride. The car will now undergo some cosmetic work, get a new paint job, and other improvements to make it safe. So Texans, watch out, there a new Vair in town !! Here are some pix, we'll post more as the job progresses.
