Final Touches on My 1964 Corvair Project: Installing Interior & Weatherstrip (3 Corvairs Down!)

Join me as I wrap up the finishing details on my 1964 Corvair project!
In this video, I'll be installing the last of the interior pieces that I have been collecting and replacing the weatherstripping, but things take an unexpected turn after a test drive. Not only do I encounter a major issue, but it ultimately leaves me with three of my Corvairs temporarily out of commission. Watch as I navigate these challenges and share tips and insights on the restoration process. Don't forget to like, comment, and subscribe for more classic car restoration content!

Ugh... Love that 64! Trying to get my 62 running that last 10% better and it's 1step forward etc keep'em coming I look forward to them. 👍

[@SlowCarFix]

I really like the 64 as well. It's a great car, just have to get it right. It'll come and then I'll pour the miles on. Good luck with yours.

The bezel with the radio in it would be my preference. I would not coat the dash with a gloss of any sort. Just due to glare or reflection from it onto the windshield. A Matt finish may reflect some as well. What a great solid car that is. Another great video. It is an education on early’s

[@SlowCarFix]

agreed on the radio bezel, that's the one I did. The dash won't be super high gloss. Thanks for watching

[@volktales7005]

I had that wipe on clear applied to my very faded '69 Chevy truck. It looked ok for about six months until it started fading that highlighted the streaks in how it was applied. Looks pretty bad now , several years later. Your existing paint looks better than mine was, so hopefully you will be ok. Like the earlys, too.

[@SlowCarFix]

Thanks for the heads up. I'm going to start with the bug because it's kind of a mess. I'll see how that goes before I do the '64.

[@Chris78MalibuSilver]

Geezz it’s like watching DD speed shop. Metal tools on paint. Not worried about scratches. 🤣😂

[@SlowCarFix]

I could care less. Shiny cars suck

[@Chris78MalibuSilver]

@@SlowCarFix well ya know what they say opinions eh…..

[@cybair9341]

Would it be too much work to install a manual transmissions on the '64 ? I mean, if you already have the parts, of course.

[@SlowCarFix]

I've done it before. It's a bit of work and there was a time that I had pretty much every part needed when my wagon got wrecked. However, I have a bunch of manual Corvairs and an automatic quiet early coupe is a nice thing to cruise with. The leaks can be a pain, but when they're right, they are really good.

Trying to get my 62 going redoing engine

[@SlowCarFix]

good luck with the project!

[@ratrod6161]

Not bad yet need turbo parts

[@stan525]

on your 66 Corsa is that type of engine cover insulation available

[@SlowCarFix]

@stan525 that's factory insulation and it's available from Clark's Corvair as reproduction.
