[FC] For Sale-----Extremely Low Mileage 63 Corvan

[EconoUSAParts at aol.com]

   Folks,its with very sincere regret that I am putting my 63 Corvan up for 
sale. Until this year, its been garaged its whole life. My current restoration 
project just stole its garage spot:-(  I have no choice basically as I have 
way too many toys and am way,way short on funds for my son's college that starts 
in 2 months. Im actually gonna have to sell 3 or 4 of my nice vehicles in 
order to pay my half of the cost. SInce Im a hard working,honest guy who pays all 
his bills, I qualify for absolutely no assistance and no grant money for his 
college. Its all on me and him basically. I never had the opportunity to 
attend college so Im doing everything in my power to give him the opportuniy I 
never had. Its a private school so unfortunately the cost is high.
       Back to the van.....Its an extremely original,extremely 
clean,unmolested black 63 Corvan with only 24,125 miles on it and that is ORIGINAL mileage. 
All chrome and stainless trim is beautful with zero pitting. All glass is 
perfect. Everything works,all lights,switches,vents,heater,wipers,horn...you name 
it. You would be hard pressed to find one in this condition anywhere that 
hasnt been restored. The wiper arms still look like new. No cracks or flaws in 
steering wheel period. The floor mat still looks like new,no tears. It has one 
half bench(bucket) seat only from the factory and its in perfect condition,no 
tears. Dash cluster is perfect,nice red needles and no faded gauges. 
       I had the bumpers and mirrors repainted the original white by a body 
shop. The bumpers are completely straight. 
       The black paint on the body was a little dull so I had it buffed.  Its 
fine for now but I would paint it at some point to keep it nice. There is 
almsot zero rust,only 2 small spots,dime sized,none rusted completely thru....no 
holes in body.There are a few tiny dings but overall this van is in great 
shape. This van was used by a funeral parlor to haul flowers to the grave site 
behind the hearse.It has 2 small brackets on the side where the funeral parlor 
sign attached. Removing them will leave only 4 screw holes to fill,nothing else. 

       I ve done a lot of work to it mechanically including rebuilding both 
carbs,front wheel cylinders,complete tune-up,new wires,nice California rust 
free gas tank replacing the old grunge filled one,tank and battery tray painted 
with POR-15,new sending unit,new battery,new fuel pump and heater hoses from 
Clark's, just changed oil and filter for 2nd time in a year.
       This van needs no parts that I know of except a new shifter boot. I 
have bought but havent yet installed 2 NOS license plate lights to replace the 
cracked ones it came with. Luckily they came black so they will match 
prefectly.
       I have installed black and chrome factory mags from a 1969 Olds 
442,with white letter radial tires on them. They look great on it. This van handles 
the turns very nicely and it still rides like new. The suspenion is tight and 
so is the steering. Remember it only has 24,125 miles on it so nothing is worn 
out. I would recommend new shocks though.
        The previous owner used the stock wheels and hubcaps on another 
Corvair he owned so I dont have the original wheels but I know a few places locally 
that they can be gotten. 
       I own 7 other driveable vehicles so I really never got a chance to 
drive this van much at all. I had big plans for it but just never got to it. I 
put less than 1000 miles on it in 2 years and only drove it locally,mostly to 
car shows but did  take it to work a few times about 25 miles away.
        The van starts right up and runs good. I can assist in shipping if 
needed but cant transport it myself unless fairly local.
       I also have a set of no window doors for the rear if someone desired 
to swap them for the window ones on it. The side doors on it dont have glass in 
them.
       I would included the 4 extra doors for an additional $100. 

       Price is $4000 firm and well worth it. From what most of the folks I 
talked with at the Corvair Nationals and other shows told me, this van is 
lightyears ahead of the condition most of the vehicles in attendance started out 
as. There is absolute minimal rust and I stand behind my word. This is the 
nicest original condition vehicle of any kind I have ever owned and I ve owned a 
lot of vehicles over the years. With minimal work and money this can be one 
really sweet ride. I can send pics to anyone interested as soon as I get my 
digital camera back from a friend. 
       Contact me at EconoUSAparts at aol.com.    I can call and discuss it 
further if you supply a phone number.
       This van is not yet listed for sale anywhere but will run on ebay if 
no interest here.
