1963 Chevrolet Corvair 2 Door Coupe on 2040-cars
Hopkinsville, Kentucky, United States
|
1963 Chevrolet Corvair Monza 900. 2 door coupe. Paint is good but passenger fender has a dent that has been pulled and is ready for repair, has been painted red to keep from rusting. (picture attached) Hood and Bumper were not effected. Engine and carbs totally rebuilt. This car runs fantastic. All wheel cylinders have been rebuilt and 4 speed transmission has been serviced as well as differential. Car has new tires, gas tank and floor pans. Car also has original FM radio that works and this model has the antenna in the back of the vehicle which is not a very common feature. Car was originally dark blue and has light blue seats that have some tears. Clark's Corvair sells seat covers to convert the seats to black for about $400. Interior has new carpet. Car also needs a headliner but Clark's sells them for $100. Door panels are newer and are black. Glass is all intact and in good shape. Wipers work. Car is from Georgia and the only rust I can see is a bubble on the rear deck lid. The deck lid came off of a 64 spyder and was painted to match when the car was painted. Interior of car has been painted dove gray. I think it will look very good with black seats and a black or white headliner. Dash has no cracks, all lights and signals work. Mechanically the car only needs an emergency brake cable. Since it's a manual transmission I just park it in gear. Odometer works but speedometer started acted funny yesterday on my way home. I believe it's the cable but have not checked it. All the corvair forums say this is a very common occurrence in the 60-64 body model. I will unhook the speedometer as it is making a roaring noise at the moment but that should solve the noise. I have found a 63 speedometer on ebay for as little as $15 so lubing the cable and getting a speedo that works won't be much of an issue. I just bought the car. I like it because it can be gotten in and driven anywhere. The last 2 corvairs I have had were both projects and unable to be driven. This one could be super nice with a little work and none of the work is hard for even a novice to do (except the painting of the fender) I bought it with intentions of keeping it but I am really more fond of the 65-69 body style so I want to sell this one and focus on finding one of those. Reserve is reasonable. I am not in any way pressed to sell it and if I don't get what I need I will have the fender repaired and keep it. This is the perfect opportunity for someone to have an above average example that can be daily driven for not a ton of cash. Car is located in Hopkinsville, Kentucky which is an hour north of Nashville, Tn. I can assist with shipping but the cost will be the responsibility of the buyer. |

Nissan Leaf sets another monthly sales record, Chevy Volt remains steady
Mon, Nov 3 2014Here we go again. Another month in the books and another month of record sales by the Nissan Leaf in the US. For October, the world's best-selling pure EV sold 2,589 units, which is 29.3 percent more than October 2013. That makes it 20 times in a row that Nissan can say that last month sales were better than the same month a year before. All told, Nissan has sold 24,411 Leafs in the US this year, a new record, reflecting an overall Leaf sales rate that is up 35 percent, year-to-date. Nissan isn't stopping, either. A new TV ad, one that, "encourages consumers to kick gas" by saving money on fuel will start airing today in major markets, according to Toby Perry, director of Nissan's EV marketing. You can watch it below. As for the Chevy Volt, things remained steady last month in the face of a new model that's coming in the second half of 2015. Chevy sold 1,439 Volts last month, which is about the same as September (1,394) but down 28.8 percent from the October 2013 despite GM having its best overall US October sales this year since 2007. So far, 2014 Volt year-to-date sales are down 14.9 percent through the end of October compared to 2013. And that wraps up the flash report on monthly sales for these two long-standing plug-in vehicles in the US market. As always, we'll have our in-depth write-up of US green car sales available soon.

GM CEO to meet with U.S. lawmakers over job cuts
Fri, Nov 30 2018WASHINGTON — General Motors Co Chief Executive Mary Barra plans to visit Capitol Hill next week to discuss the company's plans to halt production at five plants in North America next year and cut up to 15,000 jobs, two congressional aides said on Friday. GM has come under harsh criticism from lawmakers from both major political parties, and from President Donald Trump, since Monday when it announced the biggest restructuring for the U.S. No. 1 carmaker since its bankruptcy a decade ago. Barra is expected to meet with lawmakers from Michigan and Ohio, where GM plans to shutter three plants, as well as senior leaders in Congress. GM did not immediately comment. Barra has been calling lawmakers this week to explain the decision to end production. Trump has threatened to revoke subsidies for GM. The Detroit automaker plans to halt production next year at three assembly plants: the Lordstown small-car factory near Youngstown, Ohio; the Detroit-Hamtramck complex in Detroit; and the Oshawa, Ontario, assembly complex near Toronto. It will also stop building several models now assembled at those plants, including the Chevrolet Cruze, the Chevrolet Volt hybrid, the Cadillac CT6 and the Buick LaCrosse. Additionally, GM plans to shutter the Warren transmission plant outside Detroit and a plant that makes electric motors and drivetrains outside Baltimore, Maryland. The Cruze compact car will be discontinued in the U.S. market in 2019, although GM may continue building it in Mexico for other markets, Barra said. Reporting by David Shepardson. Related Video:
