This auction is for a 1962 CORVAIR MONZA CONVERTIBLE, 102 hp six cylinder engine. It is mechanically sound with total engine rebuild plus new carpet, upholstery, and convertible top.

Past repairs and servicing completed are as follows:

Complete engine rebuild in 1982. Driven less than 5000 miles since engine rebuilt. Body repair, paint and new convertible top in 1986. Multiple repairs/servicing by Corvair mechanic during 2010-2013. Some of these repairs included new fuel pump, plugs/wires, tires, wheel cylinder kit, master cylinder, carpet, inline fuel filter, battery, points/condenser and carburetor tuning.

This Corvair would be an excellent daily driver and could be a "show car" with additional bodywork and minor interior repairs. The seats and carpeting are excellent. However, interior door panels need to be replaced. Additionally, two small padding strips under the convertible top are needed.

Overall, the car is solid mechanically which is clearly evident while driving at any speed. Brakes and alignment are excellent as well as the chrome bumpers.

GM applies for LT5, LTX trademarks... are new small block variants coming?

Mon, 29 Apr 2013

Recently discovered General Motors trademark applications for LT4, LT5, LT88 and LTX have observers wondering what kind of high-performance offerings could be on their way. A new LT4 would mark a return of the engine designation first used on the Corvette Grand Sport, SLP Pontiac Firehawk and SLP Chevrolet Camaro SS from 1996 and 1997. Supposition at Corvette Forum - which provided advance intel on the C7 like these leaked images - believes a new LT4 could go into the high-performance trim of the next-gen, 2015 Camaro that would be more powerful than the 580-horsepower Camaro ZL1.
Seeing an LT5 again would also be déjà vu - in its former life it was a 5.7-liter V8 for the C4 Corvette ZR-1 from 1990-1994 designed by Lotus, producing from 370 hp to 405 hp. A mix of rumor and hope is that the new LT5 will be a supercharged evolution of the 6.2-liter LT1 (pictured) placed in the new C7 Corvette, and that it will go into the C7 version of the ZR1 pumping out something like 700 hp.
The LTX trademark is, as with that last letter, a complete mystery. If the "X" isn't a generic way to denote the whole LT family, it's wondered if it LTX could refer to a crate motor offering like the LSX.

Question of the Day: Worst year of the Malaise Era?

Thu, Jun 23 2016

The Malaise Era for cars in the United States spanned the 1973 through 1983 model years, and featured such abominations as a Corvette with just 205 horsepower (from the optional engine!) and MGBs with suspensions jacked way up to meet new headlight-height requirements. There were many low points throughout this gloomy period, of course. The horrifyingly low power and fuel-economy numbers for big V8s during the middle years of the Malaise Era make a strong case for 1974 or 1975— the years of Nixon's resignation and the Fall of Saigon, respectivelyÂ— as the most Malaisey years. But then the GM-pummeling debacles of the Chevy Citation and Cadillac Cimarron could make an early-1980s year the low point. 1979, the year of the ignominious Chrysler bailout? You choose!
