Own a piece of Chevrolet History-the documented LAST Corvair convertible built.
The opportunity to own the first or last of any rare car does not come up often. On May 14th,1969, the last Corvair rolled off the assembly line , and this car has been documented as being the last convertible built, with only three coupes following it before production ceased. It is one of only 521 convertibles out of the total production of cars built for the 1969 model year at the willow run assembly plant. The final car was an Olympic gold Monza coupe which is commonly believed to have been destroyed by Chevrolet. The second from the last car was a LeMans Blue Monza which belongs to the Corvair Preservation Foundation and is currently on display in a museum. The third from the last car has been documented as a coupe but is not currently accounted for. This car is the fourth from the last car and is a Frost Green Monza convertible, and it has been confirmed to be the last Corvair convertible built. The car is a true survivor with absolutely no rust, the original interior, numbers matching powertrain, original top, original boot, and one repaint. It has the 110 hp engine, powerglide transmission, and a number of rare options including am fm radio, telescopic steering column, and remote mirror. The car was sold new in Berkley, California, by Maggini Chevrolet and still retains it's original California black plates and original dealer plate frames. The car drives wonderfully and has only 72050 original miles. Included with the car are extensive records and documentation. |

Indian tuner turns Chevy Optra into Mustang 'Eleanor' replica
Fri, 03 Aug 2012If you are a big fan of automotive oddities, this may come as a little treat. If you are a Shelby or Mustang diehard, prepare to have your sensibilities violated.
The master fabricators at BigDaddyCustoms are the minds behind what you see above. At first, it appears to be a slightly misshapen custom Mustang, modeled after "Eleanor" from Gone In 60 Seconds, but upon further examination, something appears to be amiss. In fact, the custom shop, based in India, has created an Eleanor replica grafted upon a lowly Chevrolet Optra. While it may take a second for the Optra to ring a bell, you should recognize its badge-engineered sibling, the Daewoo Lacetti, used on Top Gear.
We don't know what star would opt for the Reasonably Priced Car in Shelby's clothing, but it's clearly someone more concerned with the aesthetic than the performance credentials of this automotive mash-up.
2014 Chevy Corvette Stingray order guide hits the web
Mon, 15 Apr 2013The official debut of the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray is only part of the excitement for fans of Chevy's virtuoso sportscar. Although we got to see the car and some of its preliminary specs in Detroit and Geneva, there is still no word on pricing and some of the juicier data points we've been waiting for - such as confirmed power output, EPA estimated mileage figures and performance numbers. Until then, CorvetteBlogger has gotten its hands on the order guide for the coupe version of the car - in both base and Z51 iterations - revealing tidbits like standard and optional features and available color combinations.
Some other new details made it onto the order guide, such as our first interior specs for the coupe including slightly less hip room and headroom, more shoulder room and the same amount of legroom. To see the full order guide, head on over to CorvetteBlogger. From what we can gather, it sounds like more information will be revealed on April 25 during a party at the Corvette Museum, and for those sun worshipers patiently waiting for a convertible, it would appear you've got another model year to wait through.
2014 Chevrolet SS makes its live debut
Sat, 16 Feb 2013Chevrolet showed off the new 2014 SS in an airport hangar last night, its first rear-wheel-drive performance sedan in the US since the Impala SS from 1997. We'll have more to say about the SS later today, but this is the sedan that Chevrolet sees as the final piece in restoring its performance credentials. For those of you looking for a manual transmission, however, that wish will go unfulfilled - at least for now: the only two options buyers will have are the color and whether or not they want a sunroof.
We'll work on getting some more angles (in better light) today at Daytona International Speedway, but with fans seeing the car for the first time, we don't hold out much luck of getting a clear shot. So for now, enjoy the high-res gallery above.
