Up for sale is my classic/historic 1963 Corvair Monza 900 Club Coupe with 2spd PowerGlide automatic. This car is ready to roll to Cruise-ins or Car Shows. Just a great driver that looks wonderful. There are no records to certify the mileage however the folks at the Corvair Ranch and other mechanics who have seen the car are all positive the mileage is accurate as not having crossed 100k (73,xxx). It has been repainted at some time but all of the typical rust areas show as original metal. It is Ermine White with Red interior.
In the last year, the following has been done. . .
Installed Rebuilt carbs purchased from Clark's Corvair
Installed New Spark Plugs purchased from Clark's Corvair
Installed new carpet (matches OEM) purchased from Clark's Corvair
Installed new kick panels and rear package pane purchased from Clark's Corvair
New rubber weather strip in both door opening installed by The Corvair Ranch
New rear wheel bearing installed by The Corvair Ranch
New Fuel Sending Unit installed by The Corvair Ranch.
PA Safety inspection by The Corvair Ranch in the fall of '12
Transmission Fluid Changed and Oil Changed.
When replacing the carpet we went the extra step of applying multiple coats of Rust Bullet to the interior surfaces of the floor pans. They were only showing the most superficial bits of rust after the carpet was removed. We have before and after pictures. They are sealed up now for posterity.
The car comes with Factory 13" wheels with BiasPly tires and 70's era 14" Enkei rims with Radial tires. The rear fender skirts only fit the 13's.
Everything works. The only items left on my list are to source an original jack from The Corvair Ranch (has an aftermarket currently) and to replace the lower rear grill. For some reason it has a '61 grill. In the Classic Car world's scale of 1-6 for condition, I peg this as a very solid 3. I used the Hagerty Insurance Valuation Tool on their website which tracks auctions and sales.
Included in the sale are the two sets of tires and rims, 2 sets of 13" hub caps, the fender skirts, Shop Manual and Supplement, Owners Manual, 1:18 scale model, and anything else I have for it.

2017 North American Car, Truck, and Utility of the Year entries announced
Wed, Jul 6 2016Over 40 vehicles will compete for the 2017 North American Car, Truck, and Utility of the Year awards. If that name looks a little strange, it's because the competition added a third category. In years past, pickup trucks, crossovers, SUVs, commercial vans, and minivans competed for the same award. That's why there were occasionally weird comparisons, like last year's competition between the Volvo XC90 and Nissan Titan XD. The new format separates pickups and commercial vans into the truck contest and CUVs, SUVs, and minivans into the utility competition. A complete list of eligible vehicles is below, but here are a few highlights. For one, the entire list of entries has a luxurious lean. Of the 43 vehicles, nearly half of them are from premium brands. There are two eligible Bentleys – the Bentayga and Mulsanne – the Rolls-Royce Dawn, Jaguar F-Pace, Audi Q7, and the Mercedes-Benz GLS-, E-, and S-Class Maybach. The performance ranks are lofty, too, with the Audi R8, Acura NSX, Alfa Romeo Giulia, Mercedes SL- and SLC-Class, Porsche 718, and F-150 Raptor. The mainstream entries are just as comprehensive. From the Chrysler Pacifica to the Chevrolet Cruze to the Fiat 124 Spider to the Mitsubishi Mirage, NACTOY has covered an enormous price range with this year's contestants. Of course, these are only the eligible vehicles. They'll need to run through three rounds of judging, starting in September at NACTOY's traditional Hell, MI, test drive. The Canadian and American journalists involved in the judging will announce this year's nine finalists – three in each category – on December 6.

Watch NASCAR racer Jeff Gordon put one over on a used car dealer... sorta
Wed, 13 Mar 2013Full Disclosure: in my younger days, I loved nothing more than tormenting passengers with my behind-the-wheel hijinks. Once, after a particularly artful handbrake turn on a two-lane at around 50 miles per hour, I left one backseat occupant crying in their own lap. This isn't necessarily something to be proud of, but it gives you a glimpse into why it is that I find this ad from Pepsi so damn disappointing. The premise is beautiful. Take NASCAR legend Jeff Gordon, give him a disguise and set him loose upon some unsuspecting used car dealer. Hilarity ensues.
Except that this Pepsi Max commercial is so obviously staged, it can't help but feel like some ham-fisted marketing fail. From the strategically placed aftermarket cupholder mounted mid-dash for the hidden camera to the fact that the supposed dealer Camaro is displayed as a 2009 model (Hint: Chevrolet didn't make any), this clip is about as organic as a Twinkie. Still, we would never turn down a chance to watch Gordon thrash on a rental-spec coupe - only problem is, he probably didn't even do the driving himself. Check it out below.
Why Cadillac thinks it needs to succeed in Europe to sell cars elsewhere
Tue, 26 Feb 2013Ward's Auto has taken an interesting look at the renewed focus General Motors is showing towards Cadillac in Europe. Susan Docherty, president and managing director of Chevrolet and Cadillac in Europe (pictured), says in order for the luxury brand to thrive in China, it first needs to succeed in the old country. The reason? Chinese buyers look to Europe for cues as to what's deemed worthy of the term "luxury." There are hurdles to the plan, however. In addition to the fact that the EU is flooded with high-end nameplates, GM doesn't necessarily have the distribution network in place to put buyers behind the wheel.
Combine that with persistent economic woes and Cadillac's checkered past marred by a lack of diesel engine options and a bankrupt distributor, and the road ahead for the brand looks like less of an uphill climb and more like a straight-up cliff face. But Docherty is optimistic and says she has a plan for the brand. We recommend heading over to Ward's for a closer look at the full read.
