1966 Corvair Corsa - It's Alive!

After almost 5 years of rebuilding and modifying the air cooled flat six boxer style engine it is ready to fire.

 

What's that strange noise coming from the back of car :)

 FINALLY - the car moves under it's own power for the first time in 26 years. Paint and body is still factory original for now.
