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.

C7 Corvette makes inaugural ad appearance in Chevy's first spot with new slogan
Mon, 11 Feb 2013Chevrolet's "Runs Deep" tagline has finally been run into the ground, replaced with the Bowtie brand's "Find New Roads" slogan that's part of parent General Motors' plan to unify its everyday brand's marketing efforts worldwide. The new Chevrolet campaign was ushered in on prime time last night during the Grammy Awards on CBS, and the first spot, a 90-second full-line ad, also marks the first appearance of the 2014 Corvette Stingray in a commercial.
Being a full-line ad, the commercial is composed of vignettes centered on different vehicles in the brand's lineup. The all-new 2014 Impala also makes its first commercial appearance in dapper fashion, and time is spent on a skateboarding Sonic and a bouquet of brightly colored Spark hatchbacks driven by fashionable women. The ad starts and ends with Chevy's green halo car, the Volt, along with a young girl with her robotic dog (yes, really).
Chevrolet's "Runs Deep" campaign got off to a rocky start in the fall of 2010, but it did last for a couple of years with some tweaks. This new one, "Find New Roads" seems more intent on drawing new customers into the fold than the outgoing tagline, which seemed to play more toward the brand faithful. It admittedly reminds us more than a little the short-lived "Find Your Own Road" Saab motto (which, we note, was conceived while the Swedish brand was under GM's control), but no matter, we still think it's got more long-term potential than "Runs Deep."
GM recalling nearly 4,000 vehicles over airbag concerns
Thu, 31 Jan 2013Four different General Motors vehicles from the 2012 model year are being recalled over a potential airbag issue. The driver's side airbag shorting bar in the 2012 Buick Verano and 2012 Chevrolet Camaro, Cruze and Sonic might make contact with the airbag terminals, even during a crash. If so, the airbag won't deploy when it should, possibly increasing injury to the driver.
The recall is expected to begin on February 13 for the 3,896 units that might be affected. GM will notify owners who can then take their vehicles to dealers to have the airbag coil replaced. A bulletin from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration below has more info.
Chevy Camaro is a good sport, wishes Ford Mustang Happy 50th
Tue, 15 Apr 2014It was 1966 when Chevrolet launched its challenger to the wildly successful Ford Mustang, the Camaro. While the competition between the two brands was already healthy, the arrival of the Camaro set off one of the most intense, model-to-model rivalries in the industry.
That competitive spirit hasn't stopped Chevy and the Camaro from wishing Ford's iconic muscle car a Happy 50th Birthday as the Ford's April 17 anniversary rolls around. These two cars have been linked over the years, and while the rivalry took a break for a few years in the 2000s, today's competition between the Camaro and Mustang is as fierce as it's ever been.
You might recall that this friendliness when it comes to major milestones isn't too rare. Ford put on quite a display for General Motors' hundredth anniversary back in 2008. As the Camaro's fiftieth birthday approaches in 2016, we wouldn't be surprised to see the Mustang sending its best wishes to its Bowtie rival.
