64 Corvair Monza Convertible, Sliver Blue, White Interior & Top, Frame-off Resto on 2040-cars
United States
|
Presented here is a
beautiful 1964 Chevrolet Corvair Monza
Convertible in
Silver Blue. Comprehensively restored for several years and completed about two
years ago, this 1964 Corvair was rebuilt as a top notch, frame-off build with
no corners cut. The gorgeous Silver Blue finish is brilliant and glossy. The
bodywork was expertly restored and refinished, showing no signs of age and
minimal evidence of use since it was completed. Paint quality is impressive,
more so than photos can show. Panel fit is excellent, and all of the chrome was
redone and remains in first-class condition. The shiny white interior is
as fresh as the bodywork and a testament to how clean and well-maintained the
car has been cared for. Everything was replaced when the work was done,
including seat covers, carpets, and door panels, with all of it using correct
materials and patterns. The gauges are fully functional and original, and so is
the AM stereo radio. The white canvas convertible top is brand new and the rear
plastic window is without any fade whatsoever. The front trunk has been fully
carpeted, including a custom cover for the spare tire. Under the rear hood is a
164 cubic inch, air-cooled 4-cylinder, four-carburetor engine that is completely trouble-free. The
engine reliably starts every single time, even when cold. The transmission is a
4-speed manual, and it shifts well and has good strong, acceleration. No smoke
of any color from the exhaust. Brakes are straight and true, with all new brake
components in all four wheels. It starts and runs
beautifully, the interior is big and comfortable, and all components are brand
new. This Corvair was a no-expenses-spared restoration by someone that did it
"for the memories" of their youth, and now must regrettably be sold.
If you're looking for a Corvair with all components brand new, ready to shine
every time it is driven, and restored to last another couple of decades, look
no further. |

2023 Grand National Roadster Show Mega Photo Gallery | Hot rod heaven
Wed, Feb 8 2023POMONA, Calif. — From an outsider's perspective, it would be easy to assume that the Grand National Roadster Show has always been a Southern California institution. After all, it celebrates the diverse postwar car culture of the region — hot rods, lead sleds, lowriders, and more. However, the show had its roots in NorCal in 1950 when Al Slonaker and his hot rod club showed their custom cars at the Oakland Expo. The GNRS moved to Pomona, California, in 2004. By then it had grown exponentially and seen about a dozen more car customization trends come and go. However, the show and its centerpiece award, the America's Most Beautiful Roadster prize, celebrate what is perhaps the first of those trends: the American hot rod in its purest form. Today, in its 73rd year, the GNRS is the oldest indoor car show in America. Annually it welcomes 500-800 cars, gathered into special themes like Tri-Five Chevys or Volkswagen Bugs. At this year's show, which was last weekend, a special hall was dedicated to pickup trucks built between 1948-98, including mini-trucks, groovy camper bed conversions, and resto-mods. However, of all the vehicles presented, only nine are eligible for the America's Most Beautiful Roadster award. Winners get their names engraved on a 9-foot-tall perpetual trophy that was, according to The Ultimate Hot Rod Dictionary, the largest in the world when it debuted in 1950. Slonaker chose the word "roadster" initially because "hot rod" bore slightly negative outlaw connotations in 1950. Only American cars built before 1937 of certain body styles — roadsters, roadster pickups, phaetons, touring cars — are eligible, and they cannot have roll-down side windows. Cars in the running for the cup cannot have been shown anywhere else before their debut at the GNRS. Contestants for this accolade essentially build their cars to the a platonic ideal of a hot rod. This year the honors went to Jack Chisenhall of San Antonio, Texas, for his "Champ Deuce," a 1932 Ford Roadster. It's exactly what you picture when you think of a hot rod, but distilled to its absolute essence. Other standouts included "Green Eyes," a two-tone green 1959 Chevy El Camino with a heavily metal-flaked bed, "Blue Monday," a 1964 Buick Riviera lowrider, and a personal favorite, "Purple Reign," a purple and black 1951 Mercury. Cars may have started out as tools, but there aren't shows like this filled with custom refrigerators.
Check out the official 2013 Trans Am Hurst Edition commercial
Sat, 16 Mar 2013
The Poncho is dead. Long live the Poncho. Like certain other reoccurring personal maladies, the aftermarket community simply can't let the Trans Am go without another flare up. The guys at Trans Am Depot have worked up a quick commercial for their newest creation: The 2013 Trans Am Hurst Edition, and it watches pretty much like you'd expect it to. The footage is comprised of just about every TA male fantasy you can conceive of, from Daisy Dukes and white tank tops to tramp stamps, bikinis and ice cream cones. There simply aren't words for what you'll see below.
Of course, we like our T-Tops as much as the next guy. If you like what you see in the videos, you can pick up your very own TA by heading over to the Trans Am Depot site. The guys even have Chevrolet Camaro-based versions of the Pontiac GTO if the '77 TA treatment is too much for your tastes. Enjoy, but don't say we didn't warn you.
