You are viewing an original, unrestored 1965 Chevrolet Corvair Monza 4 door sedan.
In 1965, Chevrolet made many changes to the Corvair and finally got it right. Few 4 door sedans were built, and therefore rare. This vehicle has the nearly indestructible automatic transmission and strong 110hp dual carb engine that can hustle this roughly 2000lb car down the freeway with no trouble. It runs smooth and strong. No knocking or pinging. Was just tuned up with all the necessaries replaced. Could use a little carb adjustment at idle. Very peppy when poked and suprising throttle response. Rolls straight when you let go of the wheel. Brakes work well. Master cylinder recently replaced. Has four new tires Chrome trim looks great. The body is straight with only one dent in the front passenger quarter panel (see photos). Only bits of superficial rust that are an easy repair (see photos). Interior needs the basic attention for a car if its age (carpet, rubber seals, door panels, few odds and ends. But, that's easy and the fun part). Light blue headliner and in nice shape. Original seats actually look quite nice and comfortable. If you're looking for an original to show, this one is well on its way. This vehicle is being offered as is. Transport is the responsibility of the buyer, however I will make every effort to assist in the process. If you've wanted a Corvair, this is a great example. Currently registered and clean title in hand. Just took it for a drive this morning. I hate letting it go, but I have too many projects in the works... Contact me if you have any questions. Good luck!

GM 6.2L V8 claims most powerful light-duty truck engine title
Thu, 12 Sep 2013General Motors has officially captured the horsepower crown for mainstream pickup trucks with its 6.2-liter V8. The big mill, available in both the Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra, comes to market with 420 horsepower and 460 pound-feet of torque, handily outdoing its two cross-town competitors, Ram (5.7-liter V8, 395 ponies and 407 lb-ft) and Ford (6.2-liter V8, 411 hp and 434 lb-ft).
The new GM 6.2 will take a bit of an investment, though. Those that want the extra thrust will need to go with either the LTZ or High Country trims from the Chevy, or the SLT and Denali trims from GMC, which are the two highest trim levels for the respective vehicles. Trim levels aside, if you're in the business of towing, GM has you covered. Optioned with the 6.2-liter V8 and the Max Trailering Package, owners will be able to pull 12,000 pounds, a hugely impressive figure.
We still aren't certain as to what sort of economy the new engine will get, but it'll probably be a bad bet for the fuel conscious. As for availability, expect to see the 6.2-liter trucks in showrooms later in the fall.
Why the Corvette's Performance Data Recorder can be illegal in some states
Fri, 26 Sep 2014The Performance Data Recorder with Valet Mode available on the 2015 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray seems like a fantastic tool for many owners. Whether they are taking 720p video while lapping the track in their new 'Vette, or just want to protect their purchase from inconsiderate joyriders, the system offers a lot of functionality in one package. However, one of the PDR's features might get buyers in trouble with the law, and it has nothing to do with recording some illicit high-speed driving on a favorite back road. The problem hinges on the various state laws concerning a person's right to privacy.
According to a letter posted by Jalopnik, Chevy dealers are asking 2015 Corvette owners not to use the Valet Mode portion of the PDR because it records audio in the cabin, in addition to performance specs. That's a problem because privacy laws vary from state to state with some requiring just one side's consent to tape sound and others requiring all parties to agree. According Jalopnik, 15 states mandate everyone's permission beforehand, but it's not clear whether these numbers are up to date. (Actually, the report varies, saying 13 states in some places and 15 in a list.)
According to the letter, Chevy is already working on a software update for the near future to rectify the issue. It's possible that simply adding a warning to drivers and the ability to turn off the audio recording function in Valet Mode might solve the problem. Obviously, this doesn't preclude Corvette drivers from using the performance aspect of the PDR, and owners are free tape lap after lap at the track.
