1966 Chevrolet Corvair Convertible

Classic Corvair & Modern Art: A 1966 Chevy Photoshoot in St. Elmo's District

The owner’s wife contacted me about a Father’s Day gift: a fun shoot with his prized 1966 Chevrolet Corvair. We landed on shooting around the St. Elmo area with all it’s art. It ended up being a perfect choice. The classic look combined with the modern art was lovely.

I didn’t have the Corvair on a list of potential future cars for myself, but I really enjoyed this car. It idled the whole time and never gave us trouble, it looks great and is a near perfect family cruiser.

I'd love to hear about your car and what you need — whether it's a Bring a Trailer listing, a private sale, a dealer lot or just a proper set of your build. No shoot is too small. A year, make, model and a rough timeline is enough to quote, and I answer email fast.
