1963 Rampside Mid-Engine Conversion

As Rampsides go, this is one of the nicest ones you will see.   This one of course no longer has the old 80 horse flat six. Instead Ken has installed a mid mounted small block Chevy along with a 1984 Corvette rear end and independent rear suspension.

Ken debuted the truck nationally at the 2000 Corvair Convention in Dayton Beach FL,  where it earned Gold in the Concours event.

Rather than repeat all the tech data and pictures here, we invite you to click on over to Gary Aube's fantastic Corvair site http://www.corvaircorsa.com/arnold01.html and enjoy the nine page article on Ken's great little truck.
