1964 Chevrolet Corvair Folding Top Manual

This Fisher Body Division booklet, "Operation and Care of the Folding Top, Power Operated," covers the 1964 Chevrolet Corvair convertible coupe. It is General Motors publication 4225572, marked First Edition, and describes the electric top power system, which uses an electric actuator in each quarter section of the body.

The pages explain how to unlock the locking handles from the striker at the windshield header, raise and lower the top with the power top control switch, and store the top boot either in its protective case in the front compartment or in the retainer behind the rear seat back. Other sections show how to lower and raise the plastic rear window with its zipper, general precautions such as never operating the top while the car is moving, and care of the rear window and top material, including cleaning with neutral soap, a mild foaming cleanser, and G.M. Plastic Cleaner. It is useful to Corvair owners and restorers.
