This car has the 150 HP Turbo option which was the first of it’s kind for North American cars.

These are original option wheels which were available in 1963 and 1964 for $400. When you consider the base price of a Corvair was about $2,000 this represented a single option worth 20% of the car. My understanding is that about 400 sets of these were delivered in the era.
