Lonnie Gilbertson created his custom 1965 Corvair called “RareVair” at his company Lonnie’s Place in Milwaukie, Oregon by combining the looks of a Yenko Singer and the performance from a mid-engine V8 powertrain. Sitting behind the driver is a 6.2 L LS3 V8 making 500+ horsepower thanks to a Comp camshaft, Holly Sniper intake manifold, and Tom Phillips custom 180-degree exhaust headers. From there power is sent to the rear wheels through a Porsche 911 Turbo (930) transaxle with a Kennedy Engineering adapter and custom axles. The 2800 lb car rides on a Fat Man Fabrication Mustang II front suspension. The rear suspension features box and reinforced trailing arms and custom anti-roll bars. Each corner has a set of QA1 coilovers and E-T Sebrings wheels. You can read more about the amazing project at Hemmings or TheBlock.

This is the least sketchy mid engine V8 Corsair I’ve seen yet. I’d like to see how much space could be gained by running this N/A.
