Book Description
376 pages, with more than 300 illustrations, diagrams and charts, size 5.5 x 8.5 inches. Originally published under the title, Corvair Owner's Handbook of Maintenance & Repair by Floyd Clymer, this edition was republished in 2016 by VelocePress. Written in easy to understand language, this is possibly the most user-friendly and comprehensive owner's workshop manual ever published for all variations of the Chevrolet Corvair. There are detailed instructions for the overhaul, service and maintenance of the major mechanical and electrical components including a comprehensive section on the maintenance and repair of the turbocharger and the various carburetor systems fitted to this series of cars. In addition, there is a separate 100 plus page section that deals with the maintenance and repair of the mechanical modifications that are specific to the 1965 and later models. Out-of-print and unavailable for many years, this book is becoming increasingly more difficult to find on the secondary market and we are pleased to be able to offer this reproduction as a service to all Chevrolet Corvair owners, restorers and enthusiasts worldwide.

Book Description
One of the most controversial cars ever made, Chevrolet's Corvair is celebrated in this unique pictorial history. From his files on the Corvair - which he first road-tested in 1959 - Karl Ludvigsen presents a plethora of photos of the original 'Holden' prototypes on test and even a Corvair engine installed in a Porsche, its first running test bed. Photos of the production Corvairs down through the years are interspersed with wild and woolly prototypes and concept cars based on this unique rear-engined auto, the one whose unusual handling helped make Ralph Nader famous. Ludvigsen, who worked at GM during much of the Corvair era from 1960 to 1969, reveals styling models and describes his own involvement with one of the handsomest sports prototypes ever designed, the Corvair Monza GT. It is a feast for fans of the novel and endearing Corvair.
