Video: Chevrolet Corvair with V8 mid-engine as "Rampy"!

Hardly anyone in this country knows him Chevrolet Corvair Rampside. But he's a true American classic that people who know him love. And this one Corvair 95 Rampside is a very special curiosity. He belongs Wayne Dick and looks like a normal, rusty old pick-up truck from the outside. But the unique piece is a real one Restomod with real power Rat. Because under the hood there is no longer the GM Turbo Air six-cylinder boxer engine in combination with the quirky manual or automatic transmission with two to four gears, instead there is a huge one 6,2 liter LS3-V8 installed in the rear area.

And the V8 comes with one Tooley Stage 3 camshaft equipped and sends his power over locking differential to the rear wheels, by the way chrome wheels are in custom style and behind them there is one sports brake system Seat. Incidentally, the engine comes from a C5 Corvette and is an improved one 4L65E four-speed automatic transmission coupled. Equipped like this, the pickup is even suitable for the drag strip. By the way: the engine does not sit "under" the loading area, but simply "thereon". The video shows you exactly how it looks and works.
