Very clean 1966 Chevrolet Corvair Monza Convertible, equipped with RARE Factory A/C. Dark blue exterior / Black interior / White top.

110hp, dual-carb engine / 3-speed transmission. Engine is in great running condition and the car runs nicely! Odometer reads 69,955, uncertain if those are original miles. VIN tag is correctly located on frame rail. VIN code: 105676W17XXXX. 1=Chevrolet, 05=Monza, 67=Convertible, 6=1966, W=Willow Run plant, 17XXXX=vehicle number.

Power convertible top!! Wood grain Grant GT steering wheel (stock steering wheel included). Alpine stereo installed (stock AM stereo included). Front and rear bumper guards. Door edge guards. Trunk and glove box lights. Center console compartment with two-cup holder. All gauges work. Interior is very clean with no tears on the dash or the seats. Body is straight and car is nearly rust-free. This car received a paint job a few years ago, but for the most part, it's a very well-kept, original car with some very rare options.

Please note: the A/C system is currently not running. The compressor and condenser were removed, intended for upgrade. The condenser looks usable. Both are included in the sale along with the other original A/C parts (blower, evaporator, hose and dash vents, which are still installed). See pictures for details.

15" rally rims w/ BF Goodrich Radial T/A tires, which gives the car a sporty look. Plus I'm including (4) additional tires with the wire-spoke hub caps. There is a small tear in the top and the left-side rear metal trim is slightly dented (see pics). Clean title and car is currently registered in California. Comes with original manual and owner's Protecto-plate. I will assist with transportation and I will answer all questions the best I can. Vehicle is listed for sale locally and we reserve the right to end the auction at any time. Vehicle is sold as is so please review the info and pictures carefully. Thanks.

GM says hybrid Corvette no laughing matter [w/poll]

Fri, 30 Aug 2013

When Mark Reuss was in LA recently, he sat down to have a few words with the scribes at the Los Angeles Times. When the issue of a hybrid Corvette came up, Reuss answered with "Don't laugh." The General Motors president is a complete fan of the possibility, calling it "attractive" and "really fun," believing it would improve GM expertise and that "people would love it."
Naturally, the president being supportive of an idea doesn't give indication that a hybrid Corvette is on the way. However, with supercars like the Porsche 918 Spyder and Ferrari LaFerrari giving hybrid tech a solid, if remote, place in the performance car world, the inexorable trickle-down of technology means we shouldn't be surprised if and when it does happen.
And now that we have that non-negative half-answer to a speculative question, it would be irresponsible for us not to commence rumormilling for the C8 Corvette. Taking Reuss at his word, the C8 will obviously be a hybrid with all-wheel-drive - the left side wheels driven with electric motors, the right side with the mid-mounted, four-cylinder diesel engine. With coefficient of drag of just .16, figure on a 0-to-60 mile-per-hour time of under 2 seconds and an all-electric range of something like 30 miles at top speed. Don't forget, folks, you read it here first.

GM recalling nearly 4,000 vehicles over airbag concerns

Thu, 31 Jan 2013

Four 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.
