You will get a car with no hidden defects, no bad surprises. The windshield has some scratches; the car can use some more details, but all the main work is done.Exterior wise, the body looks pretty good, the paint is not new but decent; some rust in some spots; engine compartment has new engine lid weatherstrip, and new body between hinges weatherstrip; new outside mirror and new armrests; I will describe what I can see carefully, without removing any body parts. The front floors look like the previous owner did some work to them. The heater works, has new hoses, dang! I did so much work to this car that it is hard to remember all the little details, but I will go through it again, and if I see any little detail that I forgot, I will update; Headlight bezels are like new, excellent, as you can see in the pix. All lights work; has lap seat belts in good working condition.I originally bought this car for myself, that is why I went the extra mile mechanically and in upgrades, to make sure that it would be reliable and far better than stock in performance and safety; now I am selling it; don't forget that the 1963 Turbo Spyder originally came with a 150 HP short stroke engine....not an optimal performance engine.....before the Turbo unit kicks in, you were basically driving an 80 HP, LOL! now, upgraded to a later 1965 long block Turbo ...180 HP, with the original gone through and resealed 63 Turbo unit and a 1965 carburetor, and before the Turbo unit kicks in, you are basically driving an awesome, highly responsive 110 HP, big difference! that is why I did these extensive modifications... Don't hesitate to ask any questions, more pix available upon request; serious inquiries and serious offers only. If you would take your car to a shop to do what I have done to this car, you would pay easily over what I am asking for this complete ride. Happy to be at your service! Rafee Corvair.
