1962 Corvair Rampside

[@Corvairracer4110]

A great looking custom rampside. I love the mods you made, wild yet mild. Job well done. Brett

[@kalleklp7291]

You took an old beauty and made it even prettier. Good job with that restoration, I can imagine all the work hours going into such a project. The fuel injection is ingenious..

[@greglava]

Great job. I love that you pick something unique and not another Mustang or Camaro.

[@surfergerm]

Nice Ride!!! I have a 63 convert Spyder that's slammed in perfect condition. I sure can appreciate the hard work you put into it.

[@HarrisonJBounel]

Great rampside! I just finished selling my last Greenbriar after being into vairs for 25 years .They were really ahead of their time .

[@dgordon130]

Just incredible work on one of my favourite Corvair's. WOW.

[@luckyshoeshine]

Thanks for sharing your rampside-its looking exceptional to say the least

[@tomcorcoran5600]

Very nice truck I have a lot of miles in Rampsides from the early 70's

[@Volkswear]

Very unique truck. Labor of love for sure.

[@ralphbillick1210]

Fantastic job, you are a very talented individual and I can’t wait to see your next project , maybe a ‘61 bubble top ?

[@Edgar-Friendly]

That Rampside has so much WIN all over it.

[@johnnydeville5701]

Awesome Rampside! Neat seeing two unique and custom Rampys from BC, I'm sure you must know Eric! I saw his Rampside at the Econorun a few weeks ago! I met a lot of great folks from the new club. Besides Corvairs being some of the coolest vehicles ever made, most Corvair folks are pretty friendly which makes them even more fun!

[@mkane]

i have a 63 van i went with a bigger tire on the back but i just ended up taking them off a year later it messed the transaxle up so bad i really didnt want to fix it again so i got alot of photos and too the 17s off. but you did a great job i would love to put a fuel injection set up on my engine.

[@ALABAMAHEADHUNTER]

Nice Truck . I recently saw one for sale on Craigslist , never really noticed one before . That Saturday one pulled up beside me at a redlight .

[@kirstenspencer3630]

Very nice rampside, most tasteful.

[@vair]

Performance is really good. With the racing cam, the high end is really strong and using the F.I. I can compensate for the cam and dial in the lower end as well. The air tank is a 2 gallon tank which fit perfectly under the right front passenger floor panel. I have the air compressor mounted there as well which I plan to move to the rear engine bay.

[@Sjplaya54]

Wow, I'd like to go this route with my rampy.. looking good brotha

[@brucecarney4416]

Very nicely done- The efi is so nice!

[@71Asrogers]

Awesome restoration! But that fuel injection is a stroke of genius! It sounds terrific too! Would like to know how this helped boost hp. Very clever. Came across this after clicking on a link for a ramp side from the car and driver backfire blog. Very nice!

[@marcomoreno3071]

you sound like a young man. Great work!. Somebody I think taught you.

[@predatorr03]

Very nice truck,you've done a great job and i enjoyed your video. Thumbs up!

[@seancashin3210]

Really well done!

[@djlaw2030]

mannn that,s a sick ass corvair u took corvair too another level mannn

[@mkane]

thats a great looking truck i will tell you that the 17s will rip out the rear end the tire has to beable to bend in the wheel when the truck moves up and down the swing axle rear end with a low pro tire will work fine at 1st but with time the yokes will be pushing hard up and down ripping apart the u joints and the spider gears

[@mikegrew7446]

Hi Shawn. Mike Grew here It really was a work of art, Shawn. I'd forgotten how nice it was. Where is it now?

[@toycarlvr]

AMAZING!!! Fantastic job!!!!

[@davidwatts5863]

Sweet ride!

[@cmscms123456]

EXCELLENT JOB.

[@ArthurSantos24]

love your Greenbrier. Very clean and smooth. Great job. I was wondering if you could help me out, I will be airbagging my 65 GB. I have all the airmanagement, but now am figuring out which bags and brackets to purchase. Would you be able to help me with the name/brand/model of your airbags and brackets? Did you relocate your shocks? Any pictures of the install that you could send my way? Thanks so much! Art

[@1964corvan]

hows the performance compared to a a stock 140??? is the air tank behind the seat or under the bed???

[@classic287]

Very nice. Well done. I like it.

[@neilmacleod5371]

Love the sound of the six. I wonder how it would do going over the Hope-Princeton ? I want one

[@craigr13666]

great little truck...

[@haroldlamble5163]

Beautiful.

[@peugeotrider2016]

thses are really great

[@guisseppebm]

any chance you can guide me in who can help me out with installing an air ride on my 62 greenbrier? I live in Langley BC now.

[@toddbell8493]

I love it just turn the key

[@cmscms123456]

Great job. Im looking at a rampside project. How much work involved to lower the rear, and what did you use for the airbags in front? Did you get your fuel injection perfected? Sounds like a good upgrade too.

[@MrJackanand]

Awesome! Was there a noted increase in HP or torque with that very clever fuel injection?

[@Iremember1977two]

wow very nice

[@ruwithlee1970]

Have you ever thought of adding a rack&pinion steering setup? And up dating the suspension ? what kind of HP do you have ?

[@peugeotrider2016]

awsome truck

[@TairnKA]

Looking good. ;-)

[@davidcastillo379]

Awesome job

[@gregcox6165]

SWEET!

[@GaryBoyd02]

Most awesome!

[@cannphotography]

LOVE what you did with this 95! I have a 62 that is just being started and I believe that I will take much inspiration from your beautiful ride here. Is there any advice that you would care to offer someone considering fuel injection for their Corvair? Peace -

[@MrMonza642000]

great stuff!

[@RodderFiles]

Very Cool man

[@ZRATAN69]

very cool...

[@n9thstar420]

Awesome !!!

[@Pacerace100]

What mufflers are these, I have a 65 Monza that i want to give it the throaty sound with dual exuast.

[@MyEyesBled]

Classic! Well done! Love it! BTW, you do know you’re completely insane... right?

[@mclaynebalzly1739]

Did he say lots of power for the 140 because I was thinking of buying one of these and putting a 140hp in it instead of the 89hp motor I just want to know if it would fit

[@vair]

Swapping the 80hp to the 140 would fit just fine

[@mclaynebalzly1739]

Shawn thanks, this is a lot of help. Should you have to use one from a first gen Corvair or could you use one out of a 65. Because I know that they changed the suspension and I didn’t know if that screwed with the transaxle or anything

[@vair]

You can use any year engine in any year car, however the engine shroud, Alternator/generator and rear motor mount is specific to early and late model cars. You may need to change these when doing the engine swap. I believe without doing modification to the suspension you should bolt the original transmission that came with the car to your new engine.

[@mclaynebalzly1739]

Shawn thanks Shawn, your a stud

[@azchevs]

Super Nice!

[@peugteobike]

is she still for sale?

[@jsax2781]

I want it, is it for sale?

[@vair]

I may consider selling, for the right offer

[@vair]

@BUNDLEofHELL I always open to offers

[@phoneyfredy]

[@TheBIKERDOOD]
