FOR SALE - 1965 CORSA 140 Convertible 4 Speed - $8000 obo

Hey all,

Believe it or not, this is mine. I have been conniving with myself to get a new Corvair for my lady for her birthday/Mother's Day. I wanted it to be a convertible, Power Glide, but when I found this 2 months ago, it felt right for the price, even though it is a 4-speed. But then, JUST TODAY, I found and bought a more perfect (for us, anyway) Monza, so this one has to go. I'm asking $8000, but I can be had.

If you act fast, you can see or pick it up in Wisconsin, otherwise you'll need to come out to Fargo.

Quick facts:

Willow Run car
Runs and drives, but engine is a little smokey.
New top.
Good interior, carpet with it, but uninstalled.
If you get it from Fargo, you get new wheels and tires with it.

YouTube links to vids of it, including driving it:

But the video was taken by the guy I bought it from, not me. smiling smiley

By "it" went away I meant the snow. Car's still there. And remember, I've said "obo". Finagle with me, folks.

Clarification for those who have inquired:

No, the car is not in my possession yet. It is still in the hands of the guy in Wisconsin who did some of the work on it and sold it to me, Stuart Jakl. But it has already been registered in my name. I simply had an abrupt change of plans and no longer have a use for it.

It's registered in your name, in N. Dakota ??? With it never having been in N. Dakota ??

Sounds awful close to the definition of "Curbing" which is illegal in most States.

Not in North Dakota. All I had to do was turn in the Wisconsin title, sign the paperwork, etc. Everything except show them the car. As long as you live in North Dakota and have all the paperwork, you can register a car. And in North Dakota, there isn't much paperwork.

As an update, the 65 Corsa car is still for sale, first come, first serve, and all that. But Stuart is seriously considering buying it back from me. He'll decide today or tomorrow, at least before the car carrier shows up to take it to North Dakota.

And here are the pictures of the 67 Monza I bought. I'll share more after I take delivery tomorrow, which is also when the Mrs finds out. Pray for me.

That is a nice looking 67. Certainly nicer than the Corsa (more desirable to many). Knowing me I would just
keep them both (and light a candle at my church).

I just don't have room for both. The CORSA is nice, but when I'm honest with myself this car is for my wife, and she has said she wants a powerglide.

Thanks. Let's not let it takeaway from the main point, which is that I need to sell the other one!
