type: Unknown Type

Description:

1960 Corvair

  • GM Assembly Type & Vendor: Rochester solid-body style.

  • Validated Part Number(s): Evidence suggests early 1960 Corvairs used a unique Rochester lighter, with part numbers referenced indirectly in restoration inventories as "Rochester type".

  • Documentation: While 1960-61 lighter assemblies sometimes appear under the same part listings as 1961, confirmation of a unique 1960 part number is elusive in currently accessible digital GM P&A or service manual scans. Most restoration vendors list 1961-64 Rochester lighters as compatible with 1960 models, but purists note subtle differences in knob/element style, indicating possible year-unique design.

  • Key Notes: The 1960 lighter is solid Rochester, and most catalogs group this with early models up to 1964 as part number continuity is implied or superseded.

  • Cross-Reference: No confirmed evidence of interchange with other 1960 Chevy passenger cars or trucks—potentially a Corvair-specific application.

  

  • STOCK PHOTO - This lighter has not been bench-tested. It may light your cigarette, or it may just sit there looking cool. Either way, it’s a genuine piece of GM history. If you’re chasing perfection, look elsewhere. 60+ PERFECTION IS HARD TO COME BY
