Produced from 1960 to 1969, the Corvair was one of the most unconventional cars ever offered by an American automaker. Designed with a rear-mounted, air-cooled flat-six engine and a unibody structure, it broke sharply from Detroit norms and offered a low, sporty profile with surprisingly balanced handling for its time. Early models gained attention—and controversy—after Ralph Nader’s 1965 book Unsafe at Any Speed criticized the car’s handling, though later studies found it comparable to its peers. Available in a wide range of body styles, including sedans, coupes, convertibles, and even vans and pickups, the Corvair developed a loyal following and remains a standout example of bold engineering and design in American automotive history. This design isn't about the typical Corvair coupe, rather an over the top hot rodded version with a wheel peeling big block rat motor stuffed behind the rear wheels.
Like all our designs, this one is treated with our signature ‘relic-ing’ process which includes our own secret recipe of hand-painted chipping, cracking, fading, and just the right touch of yellowing to ensure that it looks the part of a true vintage imprint.** We lay these works of art down on premium Bella+Canvas 3001 Unisex Jersey Short Sleeve Tees, one of the softest, best-wearing t-shirts available today, via state of the art direct to garment (DTG) printing which allows us to create a vintage effect that simply can’t be accomplished with other printing methods. In short, these shirts are everything you’ve dreamed of and more – it feels soft and lightweight with just the right amount of stretch, making it comfortable and flattering for both men and women.

Not sure what size is your best fit? We recommend taking one of your current t-shirts, laying it flat and measuring it. The measurements in the chart below are taken with the shirt laying on a flat surface. To get the length, measure from the high shoulder point down to the bottom of the shirt. To get the width, measure approximately 1-inch below the armhole, across the chest, from seam to seam. While our tees are all made using premium, pre-shrunk, ring-spun cotton, there can be some shrinkage depending on your personal wash and dry cycles. With that said, if you’re on the fence, we always suggest going up a size.
