1965 Chevrolet Corvair Monza Coupe 140hp Low Mileage on 2040-cars
Henderson, Nevada, United States
|
Beautiful 1965 Chevrolet Corvair Monza Coupe. Restoration over the past 16 months brought this car to look like new. Still having only 44,508 miles and garaged all it's life this car was purchased 3/21/65 in Hayward, California and ended up in Las Vegas, Nevada. The car never left the west coast. I am the third owner. Car had spent a few months as a lease/demo then sold with full warranty in 1965. The car was built in Chevrolets Van Nuys plant in Los Angeles. Always maintained well and has been in a "smoke-free" home. THIS CAR HAS NO RUST AT ALL! Car still has valid "original black plates" that were on the car from day one!
Features or options on the car were, 140 HP engine, telescopic wood wheel with "quick steering option",remote outside mirror (mechanism in place but removed outside mirror for appearance. Powerglide automatic transmission, padded dash, am radio with rear antenna,deluxe seat belts with retractors, spare tire lock. Here's some of the work done in the restoration: All trim work professionally powder coated. All new brakes installed. All four carbs rebuilt and painted. Also replaced the vacuum choke controls. Replaced alternator with higher amp model. New dual master cylinder for brakes. Replaced torque convertor and new seal. Replaced vacuum modulator. New idler pulley, new belt also. New engine seal. New engine mount. New "U" joints installed. New wheel bearings. Engine gone through, everything adjusted, new spark plugs/wires and everything that was in question was replaced, nothing overlooked. Complete oil change and lube suspension. Has KONI shocks. ALL NEW INTERIOR, NEW CARPET KIT, ALL SEATS REDONE,NEW HEADLINER AND BOTH VISORS,NEW GLOVEBOX. Installed seat extender for tall driver, extra 3 inches of room. NEW CUSTOM 15 INCH CHROME SUMMIT RACING WHEELS WITH LOCKS INSTALLED. ALL NEW TIRES FRONT AND REAR. Car does need a couple of things done still, door hinges making some "clicking sound" when opening doors so you may want to replace them down the road. Radio not hooked up. All in all this car would be considered by most a very good condition professionally restored antique automobile. The cars a big hit at the shows! Perfect time of year to purchase a car before all the car shows start. Buyer will send deposit of $500.00 at auction close. Final arrangements will be communicated at auction close. |

Why does the Corvette Stingray have so many vents? Here's why
Sun, 27 Jan 2013Just looking at the new 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, it's not hard to see that the car's design was created with aerodynamics at the forefront, but Chevrolet designers point out exactly what went into designing the iconic coupe in a pair of recently released videos. The videos show the Corvette going through early design phases, including clay models and wind tunnel tests, as well as talking to the car's chief engineer, Tadge Juechter.
Both videos help explain various aspects of the C7 Corvette, but it's the aero tuning of the car that is most interesting. This includes extra attention paid to the lower air dam and vented hood to help reduce drag and lift, while the rear quarter inlets are for differential and transmission cooling. Juechter said that some of these aero-tuned elements were inspired from GM's involvement in racing.
If you have about five minutes and you can't get enough information about the new 'Vette, then check out the videos posted below.
New Bright creating exclusive 1:8 scale radio-controlled C7 Corvette
Mon, 04 Feb 2013If you want a new 2014 Chevrolet Corvette but can't quite save up enough pennies for the monthly payment, we have good news for you. Toymaker New Bright has pulled the covers off of its 1:8 scale remote-controlled version of the American sports car. Complete with a very detailed interior and LED headlights, this large-scale R/C is as close as most of us will ever come to having one of the menacing Chevrolet models to call our very own. New Bright still hasn't released pricing or availability, but word has it the coupe should hit the market soon.
Right now, it appears as if the C7 will hit shelves in Torch Red, though we don't know if other colors are planned as well. The good news is that New Bright isn't exactly turning its back on the old C6 - representatives say the company will continue to make its popular C6R racecar for those who prefer round taillights.
2014 Chevy Cruze Diesel destined for Chicago debut
Mon, 28 Jan 2013It's been a little over a year and a half since General Motors first confirmed plans to offer a diesel-powered Chevrolet Cruze here in the United States, and we've now learned that the oil-burning compact will debut under the lights of the Chicago Auto Show in February. According to GM Authority, the Cruze Eco-D will be introduced as part of the entire 2014 model year Cruze range, set to go on sale in the second quarter of this year.
Earlier reports have indicated that the diesel Cruze will be able to achieve fuel economy numbers in the range of 50 miles per gallon. For comparison, the similarly sized Volkswagen Jetta TDI is rated at 30/42 mpg city/highway, but as we found out in our long-term test of the 2011 model, hitting 50 mpg was a piece of cake.
Official specifications will be released at the time of the 2014 Cruze's unveiling, though reports have stated that the sedan will be powered by a reworked version of the 2.0-liter turbo-diesel inline-four found in the Holden Cruze CDX overseas. In that application, the four-pot oil-burner produces 160 horsepower and 265 pound-feet of torque - increases of 20 hp and 29 lb-ft over the 2.0-liter engine used in VW's Jetta TDI.
