There is a confusion about the terminology. yes there was a new transmission made by Saginaw in the 1966 Corvair. It was much stronger and capable of handling more stress. Saginaw also made their three speed with an all sychro first gear for the first time. Previously, GM bought the three speed from Ford. The 3 and four speeds, with the addition of the 2 speed powerglde automatic, remained in the Corvair line until 1969 when it was discontinued. The previous 4 speed transmission was often called a Borg Warner but was in fact also a Saginaw product

When was the last Chevy Corvair made?

Officially, The last Corvair was produced on May 14, 1969, at 1:00 PM EST. It was a Monza coupe, with serial number 6000 The car was ultimately replaced by the Vega. Corvair was not "unsafe' as the public was led to believe, but was losing sales to the Ford Mustang and other popular small cars of the era. Chevy had planned to end production in 1966, and replace the Corvair with the Camaro. Thanks to a certain consumer advocate, and a book, Chevrolet produced the Corvair three years longer than planned. This was to prove they did not build a bad product. Had the book "Unsafe at Any Speed", never been published, the 1967 Corvair would never have been produced.
