1966 Chevrolet Corvair Monza Hardtop Sedan- 4 Door on 2040-cars
Fort Worth, Texas, United States
|
Up for auction I have a beautiful Rust Free, 1966 Corvair Monza Sport Sedan with 58,XXX original miles. I purchased this "Barn Find" from an Estate in California a couple of years ago and brought it back to Texas for rejuvenation.
I had the exterior repainted the original Cameo Beige which turned out very nice. I would rate it an 8 out of 10. The interior has been redone with a mix of fabric and vinyl, along with new carpet and padding. The headliner, door panels and dash pad are original but look great with no rips, tears or stains. I've added a Kenwood stereo with CD along with 4 speakers. There was no cutting done, so the originality is still present if you chose to remove them. The system also is set up with Bluetooth so you can drive hands free if need to receive a call. Below is a list of all items that I've replaced or repaired. * New 15" BF Goodrich TA Radials with freshly Powder Coated Wheels -Including the Spare * New Brake System-All components including Master Cylinder * New Idler Arm * New Vinyl Top * New Wheel Moldings * New Door Strips and Seals including Fuzzies * New Electric Fuel Pump- Airtex E8016S * New Interior as mentioned above * New Rear Tail Lenses with LED inserts * All Engine Tin was powder coated * Engine was resealed * New Blower Fan Bearing * New Alternator with Proper Conversion * 4 Fresh Carb Rebuilds- Steve Goodman of Rear Engine Specialists * New Battery (2013) * New Emergency Brake Cable All fluids were changed including the Transmission and pan gasket If you are looking for a Turn Key Corvair, this is it.....This is not a project. All you have to do is drive this one. The only known leak is from the shifter cable on the transmission. It will leak some if left sitting more ( about 1 Tablespoon) than 2 weeks. We have tried to reseal twice with no success. The car runs and shift great. No shakes, shimmies or vibrations. This is one nice cruising Vair!! I'm a member of the local Corvair Club as well as CORSA. The last Corvair show I participated in we won * Best Interior* and *Best Engine Compartment* I will be happy to answer any questions or concerns you may have. Good Luck and Happy Bidding!!! Please remember that this is a 48 Year Old Car and is sold with No Warranty. On Aug-29-14 at 08:53:06 PDT, seller added the following information: ******Just in case you didn't notice, this includes a period correct luggage rack and the stock 140 HP with a PowerGlide Transmission****** There wasn't too many of these made in 1966 Another item of interest is the Carb linkage, which is the updated and improved set up that Roger Parent sells The last picture shows the car when I received it from California. Once again, Rust Free!!! The underside is also very clean and rust free. |

Supercharged 2015 Chevy Corvette Z06 takes the C7 beyond the ZR1
Mon, 13 Jan 2014
The Z06 is just about everything we got in the last ZR1, but better.
After a bright-yellow false start, here is the real thing: the fourth-generation, 2015 Corvette Z06. If Chevrolet makes a ZR1 version of the C7 Corvette, it's going to be absolutely mega, because the Z06 is just about everything we got in the last ZR1, but better.
GM recalling nearly 4,000 vehicles over airbag concerns
Thu, 31 Jan 2013Four different General Motors vehicles from the 2012 model year are being recalled over a potential airbag issue. The driver's side airbag shorting bar in the 2012 Buick Verano and 2012 Chevrolet Camaro, Cruze and Sonic might make contact with the airbag terminals, even during a crash. If so, the airbag won't deploy when it should, possibly increasing injury to the driver.
The recall is expected to begin on February 13 for the 3,896 units that might be affected. GM will notify owners who can then take their vehicles to dealers to have the airbag coil replaced. A bulletin from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration below has more info.
Helicopter crashes on Top Gear Korea set while chasing Corvette ZR1
Mon, 11 Feb 2013The formula of Top Gear Korea is seemingly about the same as it is everywhere else in the world, including the flagship British original: involve interesting cars in fantastical situations with charismatic hosts. That prescription has proved to be pretty reliable over the years, and has lead to some truly memorable and exciting pieces of television.
Something like that was undoubtedly what the Korean producers were after when they lined up this segment - a drag race between a Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 and an AH1 Cobra military helicopter. The planners almost certainly did not expect the filming of the segment to go quite as wrong as it actually did, with the helicopter actually crashing into the dirt after the "drag race" had been completed. Thankfully, we're told that no one was seriously injured in the crash, but the footage, in the video below, is pretty damn chilling to watch, nevertheless.
