1964 Corvair Monza Spyder Turbo Convertible on 2040-cars
Monticello, Kentucky, United States
|
For Sale, my 1964 Monza Spyder Turbo Convertible.
The last year of the original body style Corvairs. There were only 4,761 of the 64 Spyder Convertibles ever built originally, estimated to be less then 1500 still existing. Everywhere I have driven it, it always gets looks, waves, and compliments! 150 H.P. Turbocharged Air-Cooled flat 6 cylinder engine. Strong runner, I've had the car to over 70 on the interstate with no problems whatsoever. Car has had a recent total restoration, including all new interior from Clark's Corvair, new paint in G.M. Yellow Gold, new P185-80R 13" B.F.Goodrich wide whitewall tires (less then 1000 miles on tires). Optional right outside mirror, and the center floor console from Clark's included as well. Custom trim striping on rocker panels, the original wire wheel style hubcaps, and hard to find original headlight gravel guards. All lights work, headlights, turn signals, brake lights, reverse lights, dash lights. New high volume dual horns installed. Radio installed, but not hooked up, and no speaker in the dash. Parking Brake not operating, might need new cable. Manual Convertible top in great shape, works easily. Great driver, the 64s had the rear suspension upgrade which greatly improved the handling. I drive it around on the mountain roads in my area and it handles as well as any modern car! The car has the original Owner's manual, Convertible Top manual, warranty book, and advertising materials from 1964. Also included is a set of original G.M. Shop manuals, including the 64 updates, plus the G.M. Assembly Manual for the Corvair. Also, a complete set of the latest issue catalogs from Clark's Corvair parts. Also included are a spare clutch cable, 2 fan belts, and other spare parts. The car starts easily, drives great, no smoke from exhaust. It does use a little oil, perhaps some minor leaks, not uncommon for a 50 year old Corvair. |

C7 Corvette turbo with 1,000 horsepower promised from Hennessey
Mon, 25 Feb 2013If you can't wait for the next-generation Chevrolet Corvette ZR1, Hennessey says they will have you covered. The Texas-based company has announced it will offer a spate of upgrades for the 2014 Corvette ranging from a range of bolt-on options all the way up to a 1,000-horsepower, twin-turbo system. Buyers can start with a cold air intake, cat-back exhaust or stainless steel long-tube headers, but Hennessey says it will also offer up three stages of forced induction mayhem should those bits and baubles not provide enough thrust.
Those choices start with a supercharger system good for up to 700 hp, though Hennessey will gladly ditch the blower in favor of two turbos. Doing so will spin the crank to the tune of 800 horsepower all the way up to a certifiably ludicrous 1,000 ponies. There's no word on how much these tricks will cost you - or when they will be available, as we're guessing they haven't gotten their hands on the car yet - but you can head over to the Hennessey site to drop them a line if you're curious.
Hot Wheels Camaro to make big debut at Indy
Fri, 05 Apr 2013Chevrolet handed over the keys to 33 Hot Wheels Camaro Convertible Indianapolis 500 festival cars this week. Race directors get the luxury of driving the droptops around Indianapolis in an ongoing tradition with roots all the way back to the 1960s. The stunt is supposed to remind area residents that the Indy 500 is right around the corner. The cars are our first look at the special Camaro Hot Wheels Edition in convertible form, and they are slated to head to dealers after a one-time production run. The cars also represent the first time in history full-size Hot Wheels have been offered for sale by an automaker.
The cars will be available in both the previously seen coupe bodystyle and this convertible configuration, and will feature metallic blue paint and special wheels with the iconic redline accent. Buyers will be able to choose between the V6-powered 2LT trim and the V8-powered 2SS guise.
Hot Wheels says the original Custom Camaro toy was one of the original 16 1:64-scale diecasts, and it remains one of the company's most valuable collector items today.
Watch this time-lapse build of the Chevy SS for NASCAR
Fri, 08 Feb 2013There's only about a week left until we get our first look at the production version of the 2014 Chevrolet SS sedan, but Chevrolet NASCAR teams have been looking at the race version of the car all winter. Autoweek has posted a really neat time-lapse video showing just a portion of what it takes to build one of NASCAR's new Gen6 stock cars.
Though the video is quite brief, it does show almost the entire build process starting with just the car's nose, and it gives us a good look at how integral the template is to the final product. As a bonus, Hendrick Motorsports also provided some videos showing two of its teams performing pit stop tests over the winter. The second video shows some of the more detailed aspects of the racecar's rear end, including the stock-looking trunk cutout and a newly mandated rear bumper extension that will be used on super speedways like Daytona and Talladega.
To see what Team Chevy has been up to all off-season, check out all three videos posted after the jump.
