1966 Chevrolet Corvair Convertible Monza 110 hp 4 speed stick shift. For those that don't already know it is a flat 6 cylinder air cooled engine and is in the back of the car. Odometer reads 15,600 but I'm pretty sure that means it's really 115,600. This car is safe and ready to drive, I will be driving it on any nice day I can until it sells :( I love this car but it doesn't fit well with the family right now.

Engine runs good. The interior is in good condition and the body is in good condition with very little rust. I have done a bunch of work to this car but there is still more to be done. I will list the items that I have replaced and the ones that still need attention. The top needs replacing, it is in one piece so you can put it up but the seams are coming apart, it will not keep the rain out. I have been keeping it in my garage with the top down. The paint is ok but not perfect there are some bubbled up spots and nicks in it. There is some rust in the door jams, a few pin holes in the trunk and floorboards.  This is a car that is ready to cruise around on a nice day as is and or fix it up as little or as much as you want. One thing is for sure is that wherever you go in it you will get thumbs up, honking, and lots of questions about this car. It is fun to drive by the way.

Replaced in the past year:

Clutch, flywheel, throw out bearing, pressure plate and related other small parts
Input shaft
Front break pads, wheel cylinders, and springs
Master cylinder upgraded to dual master cylinder
Some rear and front suspension bushings
Petronix ignitor installed in place of points
Flamethrower II ignition coil
clutch cable
convertible top boot
New dash pad
Replaced all UV joints
new plugs and wires
Replaced all dash light bulbs
There is more I just can't think of right off hand

Still needs attention:
Top needs to be replaced.
Engine leaks a little oil but it seems that all Corvair engines do
No heater
Original AM radio installed but not hooked up, I have a retro style radio with mp3 capability you can have with the car


Again, this car is safe (for a car built in 1966) and fun to drive as is and you will look cool in it. 

If a buyer is far enough away that the car requires shipping,  I am going to leave it up to the responsibility of the buyer to arrange the shipping but I will assist in coordination and loading in any way I can.

"Turbo" Chevrolet Camaro is a 700-HP fantasy car come to life [w/video]

Thu, 07 Feb 2013

For a concept car built to promote an animated movie about a snail that wants to go racing, this thing ain't half bad. The outsized monster you see before you started life as a Chevrolet Camaro ZL1, and then went through a big-time Hollywood makeover before being positioned on the Chevrolet stand here in Chicago.
This 2013 "Turbo" Camaro Coupe is getting the promotion machine ratcheted up for a new DreamWorks tale by the name of, you guessed it, Turbo. Coming this summer, the movie will follow one snail's quest to become a race driver worthy of making the cut at the Indy 500. Like many DreamWorks vehicles before it, we're guessing that the petrolhead snail will star in a movie that adults (especially racing fans) with have no trouble watching with their kids. Check out the trailer below to see if you agree.
As for the car, we're told that it is "instrumental" in transforming Turbo from snail into racer. Helping the beastly pony car in this mighty task, is an ankle-cracking front splitter matched by a ungodly huge rear wing out back, a COPO hood and a supercharged (yes, supercharged) V8 engine making more than 700 horsepower. 24-inch wheels all the way around - 10-inches wide in front and 15-inches wide in back - should allow the "Turbo" Camaro to hook up with ease, as well.

First privately owned Corvette Stingray blitzes 1/4 mile in 12.23 at 114.88 mph

Tue, 01 Oct 2013

Chevrolet's latest road rocket, the Corvette Stingray, is a very quick car. If one needs further proof of that, we recommend they take a look at this video from Hennessey of what is claimed to be the first privately owned C7 Corvette to make a pass down the quarter mile. Not just any quarter mile, mind, this black C7 blitzed its way down the tuner's primary testing dragstrip. The Chevrolet ran the quarter in just 12.23 seconds at 114.88 miles per hour. That is a very quick time for a stock car.
Equipped with the Z51 package and a six-speed automatic transmission, not only does the C7 run a solid time, but it does so with little to no drama. That won't last though, as Hennessey will likely return it to its owner with far more power - we just hope they show a drag run of the completed product. Take a look below to watch the C7's 12.23-second run on video.

GM will stop reporting monthly U.S. vehicle sales

Tue, Apr 3 2018

DETROIT — General Motors said on Tuesday it will stop reporting monthly U.S. vehicle sales, saying the 30-day snapshot does not accurately reflect the market, and will instead issue quarterly sales. GM will also no longer report monthly sales in China, its largest market, and Brazil. GM will provide monthly data to the U.S. Federal Reserve, industry associations and government agencies across the globe, but that data is not made public. Analysts and investors rely on monthly U.S. vehicle sales not just to track the performance of individual automakers, but as a barometer of the health of the world's second-largest auto market and as an indicator of consumer confidence in the U.S. economy overall. GM and its Detroit rivals Ford and Fiat Chrysler have relied heavily on sales of high-margin pickup truck and SUV sales to boost profits. GM's total U.S. sales, its second-largest market, are down 3.2 percent for the first two months of 2018, reflecting a 6.8 percent drop in retail sales to individual customers, the company reported last month. GM executives have expressed frustration that comparisons of monthly U.S. sales results among rival automakers are distorted by short-term discount programs, and by differences in strategy for selling vehicles in bulk to rental car fleets. "Thirty days is not enough time to separate real sales trends from short-term fluctuations in a very dynamic, highly competitive market," Kurt McNeil, U.S. vice president for sales operations said in a statement. GM's actions could prompt other automakers to also switch to quarterly U.S. sales reports. Major automakers will report March U.S. new vehicle sales on Tuesday. Until the early 1990s, most U.S. automakers released sales results every 10 days. The former Chrysler Corp. stopped reporting sales on a 10-day basis in 1990, and rivals followed suit over the next three years. GM executives are betting that investors will quickly adapt to receiving U.S. sales data every three months, as investors in other retail sectors already have. Retailers such as Walmart report sales on a quarterly basis. Reporting by Joe WhiteRelated Video: Image Credit: Reuters Earnings/Financials Green Buick Cadillac Chevrolet GM GMC US
