    This one looks interesting!

    Per ad: 700 Series car, automatic transmission - car was rebuilt in it's past has 102k miles on it. Was bought 30 years ago and parked. Rust through on hood only. Interior dash all in tact, unsure of what works - engine and tranny original. All emblems and quarter panels are in good straight condition. Has another engine for this and misc parts too. Motor in this car is in the rear. Doors open easily, owner has key and title.

    Call Vicki to see the car on Southside of Indy - 812-630-5924

    Needs to be posted on a Corvair site. Probably would sell faster there.

    Is that rear driver's side tire flat?

    Looks more like it's about falling off the rim.

    Any car that's been sitting 30 years will need tires anyway.
    That would be the least of my worries on this one.
    All of those engine seals would be rotted too on both engines.

    Pretty much ANY Corvair you buy, you're going to budget for an engine rebuild......

    Thanks. But it has been proven that a tire that's flat on the bottom will be flat on the top when rotated making it the new bottom. Same goes if stopped on either side. The side then becomes flat as it sits on the bottom.:rofl2:In reality it will still remain flat on the bottom even if that part once was at the top.:drink:After a few drinks this all makes sense!:yup:

    Poor Corvair! The 700 was the middle trim line I believe....they had a 500, 700 and a 900(Monza).

    All it needs is a new left rear tire.

    Falling off the rim? I wonder what else it needs, If anything.
