'65 Corvair Corsa Convertible Interior




Final Coat


The interior Dash and metal parts on the doors on the '65 Corvair Corsa Convertible were sanded down to bare metal and epoxy primed and then a finish coat of Tan was applied. We like it so well we shot a couple of coats of clear on top of that and it is looking good!


Going to do a little buffing on this to finish it out for show quality. We debated on the Clear Coat for the Interior - concerned if it would make the dash a bit shiny but after it was done everyone liked it (will have to see how the suns glare treats us once it is on the road).


Need to be making some decisions on the interior upholstery - Factory Stock or a Custom job by the local Upholstery Shop. What should this '65 Corvair Corsa Convertible have? Leaning very heavily towards the Custom side. I have been talking to the Upholstery Man and he has some good thoughts for a custom design. Have seen some of his work on a few Hot Rods and Customs and he is very good.


Can't forget about the wheels - Stock with wire caps or?
