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. |

Indian tuner turns Chevy Optra into Mustang 'Eleanor' replica
Fri, 03 Aug 2012If you are a big fan of automotive oddities, this may come as a little treat. If you are a Shelby or Mustang diehard, prepare to have your sensibilities violated.
The master fabricators at BigDaddyCustoms are the minds behind what you see above. At first, it appears to be a slightly misshapen custom Mustang, modeled after "Eleanor" from Gone In 60 Seconds, but upon further examination, something appears to be amiss. In fact, the custom shop, based in India, has created an Eleanor replica grafted upon a lowly Chevrolet Optra. While it may take a second for the Optra to ring a bell, you should recognize its badge-engineered sibling, the Daewoo Lacetti, used on Top Gear.
We don't know what star would opt for the Reasonably Priced Car in Shelby's clothing, but it's clearly someone more concerned with the aesthetic than the performance credentials of this automotive mash-up.

General Motors shaking up its marketing... again
Wed, 13 Mar 2013One of the things that dogs the full comeback of General Motors is the instability of its marketing. That part of the automaker got yet another big shakeup today when GM confirmed what I have been tweeting for a few days - strong rumors that the Chevrolet and Cadillac ad accounts are walking to new ad agencies.
Cadillac, GM's luxury brand, is going into review from Fallon Worldwide, Minneapolis and the indications are that Campbell-Ewald, Chevy's old ad shop, will end up with most or all of it. C-E just announced that it was moving from its long-time home in Warren, MI to a new downtown Detroit office next to Ford Field, just blocks from GM.
The other shoe to drop shortly will be the shift of GM's most important brand, Chevy, from Goodby, Silverstein & Partners of San Francisco to McCann-Erickson of Troy, MI. McCann used to be the agency for Buick and GMC, as well as GM's corporate advertising, and has retained some pieces of business over the last few years. Sources have even told us that it was McCann that did a lot of the creative work on Chevy's new ad platform, Find New Roads. (Not to be confused with a former McCann tagline for Saab, "Find Your Own Road.")
