has gloss | eng: Chevrolet Corvair Powerglide is a two-speed automatic transmission designed specially for the then all-new 1960 Chevrolet Corvair compact car that emerged in the fall of 1959 as Chevrolets competitor in the then booming small car market. Corvair was powered by a six-cylinder rear engine that necessitated a specially designed transaxle. Corvair Powerglide took the principles of the standard Chevrolet Powerglide and modified them to suit the rear mounted powertrain location of the new Corvair. Corvair used the Powerglide for all ten years it was produced; 1961-63 Pontiac Tempest used a modified (for front mounted engine) version of Corvair Powerglide called TempesTorque. |
