Up for sale is my 1965 Chevy Corvair Monza 4 door hard top. I purchased it about 3 years ago with intentions of driving it. I drove it around the neighborhood as a golf cart for about 6 months and kind of lost interest and parked it when I couldn't title it. I was finally issued a clear title in my name 11/08/2013, but became a father on 08/14/2013.  It has sat in my climate controlled garage for 2 and a 1/2 years without being driven because I couldn't get a title. I went to crank it and it didn't start. I guess it's unreasonable to expect it to crank on 2 1/2 year old gas, but it was worth a shot. With the baby and fiance, I don't want to spend any time or money on it so I figured it's best to just sell it and try to get some of my money back. It was pulled out of the garage today to take pictures of it. I will try to give the best and most honest description, along with detailed pictures. When looking, please remember that the car hasn't been detailed and tire wet and all that other stuff. This is just how it set in the garage.

The antenna is not on, it is in the front trunk. The triangular glass washer bottle that is shown in the front trunk is quite valuable itself, as most of them have been broken. I was offered $250 for the bottle alone from a guy at a local car show trying to complete his corvair. I would plan on putting a paint job on the corvair cause it's far from perfect, but I took a cloth and polished a spot as seen below just to see if the paint was capable of shining. Right before I purchased the car, the previous owner put a brand new $2200.00 interior (including new carpet, door panels, seat upholstery, and headliner. He had also just had 2 brand new carbs put on as well as other things. The car needs new door seals, and the back door seals leaked a little and you can see where it kind of warped the door panels. I'll try and capture it in pictures the best I can. Interior is still in amazing condition. Vinyl was unharmed by the leak, just the door panels need a new piece of wood to stretch the vinyl over.

There are very small rust spots on the bottoms, and I am trying to get a picture of each one uploaded. Also the front right door does not seem to want to latch. As I said, I'm trying to do the best job I can do listing everything, but I may leave something out. This vehicle is sold as where is, and delivery is available for $1.00 per loaded mile. I have this vehicle for sale locally and reserve the right to end auction at any time. Call 252-342-2494 to come take a look. Thanks

I listed this when I didn't think a title was possible and it went for $1950, reserve not yet, however it was running and driving. I assume having a title more than makes up for the old gas, so that's where I'm starting the auction.

Least reliable cars and trucks of 2022

Tue, Nov 15 2022

Related: Most reliable cars and trucks of 2022   Every year, Consumer Reports ranks new cars based on their predicted reliability. We often see Toyota, Lexus, and a few other automakers near the top. But on the other side of the coin, the list of least reliable vehicles sometimes contains surprises.   The organization surveys its members to determine the vehicles that exhibited the most problems over the prior year. Owners are asked about creaks and rattles, the durability of parts and trim, and mechanical issues. Consumer Reports assigns a weight to each problem and then uses them to create a score, with 100 being the best. Some familiar names appear on the list of least reliable vehicles (in order with the lowest predicted reliability score at the top), but there are a few eyebrow-raising models, followed by CR's score: Ford F-150 Hybrid: 4 Hyundai Kona Electric: 5 Lincoln Aviator: 8 Nissan Sentra: 9 Ford Explorer: 16 Chevrolet Bolt: 17 Chevrolet Silverado 1500/GMC Sierra 1500: 19 Jeep Gladiator: 21 Mercedes-Benz GLE: 23 Jeep Wrangler: 24 Consumer Reports noted that sedans are the most reliable vehicle category and found that trucks are far lower on the list. That said, the survey showed that trucks from American brands tended to have better reliability scores, so it’s surprising to see GMÂ’s big two and the Ford F-150 on the list. Part of their problematic ownership experience could be due to the fact that all three trucks have received recent updates, and the Ford was completely redesigned for 2022. New tech, fresh drivetrain components, and other improvements can upset the balance of reliability and make newer models look less dependable than their older counterparts.

2023 Grand National Roadster Show Mega Photo Gallery | Hot rod heaven

Wed, Feb 8 2023

POMONA, Calif. — From an outsider's perspective, it would be easy to assume that the Grand National Roadster Show has always been a Southern California institution. After all, it celebrates the diverse postwar car culture of the region — hot rods, lead sleds, lowriders, and more. However, the show had its roots in NorCal in 1950 when Al Slonaker and his hot rod club showed their custom cars at the Oakland Expo. The GNRS moved to Pomona, California, in 2004. By then it had grown exponentially and seen about a dozen more car customization trends come and go. However, the show and its centerpiece award, the America's Most Beautiful Roadster prize, celebrate what is perhaps the first of those trends: the American hot rod in its purest form. Today, in its 73rd year, the GNRS is the oldest indoor car show in America. Annually it welcomes 500-800 cars, gathered into special themes like Tri-Five Chevys or Volkswagen Bugs. At this year's show, which was last weekend, a special hall was dedicated to pickup trucks built between 1948-98, including mini-trucks, groovy camper bed conversions, and resto-mods.  However, of all the vehicles presented, only nine are eligible for the America's Most Beautiful Roadster award. Winners get their names engraved on a 9-foot-tall perpetual trophy that was, according to The Ultimate Hot Rod Dictionary, the largest in the world when it debuted in 1950. Slonaker chose the word "roadster" initially because "hot rod" bore slightly negative outlaw connotations in 1950. Only American cars built before 1937 of certain body styles — roadsters, roadster pickups, phaetons, touring cars — are eligible, and they cannot have roll-down side windows.  Cars in the running for the cup cannot have been shown anywhere else before their debut at the GNRS.  Contestants for this accolade essentially build their cars to the a platonic ideal of a hot rod. This year the honors went to Jack Chisenhall of San Antonio, Texas, for his "Champ Deuce," a 1932 Ford Roadster. It's exactly what you picture when you think of a hot rod, but distilled to its absolute essence.  Other standouts included "Green Eyes," a two-tone green 1959 Chevy El Camino  with a heavily metal-flaked bed, "Blue Monday," a 1964 Buick Riviera lowrider, and a personal favorite, "Purple Reign," a purple and black 1951 Mercury. Cars may have started out as tools, but there aren't shows like this filled with custom refrigerators.
