Up for auction is a 1965 Corvair Monza 110 Convertible. This is a very presentable and reliable automobile, and at 2650 pounds on a 108 inch wheelbase with a 56 inch track and fully independant front and rear suspension, is a really fun car to drive. The super reliable and low maintenance air-cooled flat 6 engine provides loads of torque and the 45/55 weight distribution makes for a great handler.
This car has been the wife's weekend fun car for a number of years and as such has been updated and well maintained. Within the last thousand miles the following have been done:
New trunk and engine compartment weatherstripping
Dual master cylinder installation for safety
New brakes all four corners
Replaced rear shocks, springs and bushings
Replaced cooling fan and bearing
New Distributor
New plug wires
Rebuilt carbs
Complete tune-up with points, rotor and condenser
Replaced fuel pump
Replaced engine compartment cooling valves
The overall condition is that of a very presentable driver. The tires have approximately 75% wear remaining and are not cracked. The paint was a respray from some point in the past and has held up well. There is no structural rust present and the crossmember is fine. There is some bubbling along the bottom of the drivers side rear quarter panel under the battery tray and is the usual on these cars. The engine cover has the usual minor bubbling along the lower lip and there are two tiny cracks in the paint along the top edge of the drivers door. The only rust through is in the battery tray under the battery in the engine compartment. The trunk area is solid and painted in the correct splatter pattern.
The interior is in perfect condition. No rips, tears, stains, wears, including the door panels. All seat belts are in perfect condition as well and the instrument panel has been redone and is in like new condition. All the lights, gauges, and warning lights work with the exception of the odometer which is not working. The turn signals work but need to be manually cancelled as the turn signal switch will not self-cancel.
The manual convertible top is in perfect condition as is the top mechanism, padding and rear window.
The car starts, runs and drives nicely, it uses no oil and the transmission shifts as it should. It is an all around modern looking , dependable classic car that gets lots of attention and one in which you wont be constantly meeting yourself coming from and going to the cruise ins.
Any further information required, feel free to submit any questions you may have and I'll be happy to try to answer them. My reserve is low, as my wife is no longer driving and the car needs a new home. Thanks and Happy Bidding.

That said, there were other important reveals like the 2024 Volkswagen Atlas and Atlas Cross Sport and the 2024 Subaru Crosstrek. We also learned some interesting tidbits, such as the fact that VW is considering a pickup, and Jeep owners really are plugging in.

Automakers score 8 out of top 20 most-watched ads on YouTube [w/videos]
Fri, 14 Dec 2012Who would have ever thought there'd be a day where people are able to skip television commercials only to go to websites to watch them later? Such is the joy of a DVR and YouTube. AdWeek tabulated the 20 most-watched ads on YouTube, and found that nine were car-related including eight coming from automakers.
Volkswagen continued its Star Wars theme with two ads in the top 20, including the highest-ranking car commercial The Bark Side spot at number three with almost 18 million views, which doesn't even have a single car in it. Some of our favorites are from Chrysler with Clint Eastwood in It's Halftime in America and House Arrest with Charlie Sheen for the Fiat 500 Abarth. Chevrolet, Honda, Audi and Toyota were the other automakers in the top 20, but we'd be remiss if we didn't at least mention one of the coolest ads on the list, the Hot Wheels corkscrew jump.
Of all the car videos, only the Fiat ad wasn't played during a Super Bowl. Check out all eight videos - in order - after the jump. Nike took the top spot with its My Time is Now ad that has been seen online more than 20 million times with Pepsi's Uncle Drew posted up in the runner-up; some of the other videos include four Old Spice commercials and an ad in which Snoop Dogg is pedaling Hot Pockets.
Next-gen Chevy Cruze caught cruising in the cold
Wed, 13 Feb 2013Spy photographers have caught what looks like the next-generation Chevrolet Cruze out on snow patrol. The camo could be tricking our eyes, but it look like it has an even tidier, more rounded front end and even lower fenders in relation to the top of the hood. And either a chunk of camo has been wedged between the side mirrors and the doors, or the mirrors are up for revision, too.
The door handles have been moved up the side of the car, leading the way to a rear end that grows a bit in length. If the rumors are true, the coming second-generation Cruze sits on the new D2XX platform that will replace the Delta and Theta platforms at General Motors. A global architecture, the Cruze will be the first to get it, but it will underpin everything from next Chevrolet Volt to the Equinox and could be responsible for 2.5 million units by 2018. The next Cruze is expected to begin production in GM's Lordstown, Ohio plant in the third quarter of 2014.
