1963 Chevy Corvair Coupe, Monza 900 Automatic.

Time to sell my 1963 Corvair Monza 900, Automatic. I was just given a new Grate Dane and need a larger vehicle to move him around in. This Corvair is in nice shape with three rips in the driver's seat along the seam and the headliner in the rear passenger side needs new stitching. It does have the typical minor transmission drip - it likes to mark its spot, otherwise it cruses nicely at 70 on the highway and stops when asked with confidence. Has new K&N Air filters, has just had an oil change and new belt installed. Comes with an extra oil filter and belt, new gas cap and a reproduction owner’s manual. No other known issues. It has 57,600 original miles (title states "original") which will change as it is driven on weekends and it has a clean Virginia Title in my name. Added features include the 1/2 vinyl landau top, luggage rack, fender skirts, electronic fuel pump, fender signal lights, door and trunk trim, extra insignias. Registered as a historical vehicle, it comes with never before used 1963 VA plates which will stay with the car and other items that the previous owner added over the years. It has a full size car cover as well and duel exhausts. Both heat vents open and close automatically as needed when the engine heats up as well. Back seat folds down.

The car is located in Northern Virginia, in Vienna VA, zip is 22182 and is garaged. There is minor rust here and there which you would normally see on a 51 year old car. It has been painted during its life and may have had some minor body fill applied in its history. This car looks great at 2 feet. It has an FM booster in the glove compartment and used to have two antennas - it now has one. Wind shield wipers appear to be original then they work fine. In the trunk is an original glass bottle for extra wind shield fluid and a jack - no rust.

The car can be driven away with confidence. It is air cooled, has good tires but no spare. It cruses nicely at 70 and has lots of extra power available - I haven't taken it over 75 but it can easily do that if the next driver wanted an interesting experience.

For Those in Northern Virginia:
Saturday morning (June 14th), I will be at Kate's Cars & Coffee in Great Falls at 760 Walker Rd, Great Falls, VA 22066 - which runs from 6:30AM - 8:30AM in case anyone would like to have a look at it in person. I am usually the only Corvair on site. I will have a For Sale sign on it.

Please come and view the car before bidding so you know what you are bidding on. It is a unique piece of automotive art and attracts a lot of comments and memories from others who have either had one or had parents with one in the past.

If you would like to see the car at another time, I am located near Huntermill Road and Dulles Toll Road in the Vienna/Reston area.

GM recalls 8,500 Chevrolet Malibu models for rear suspension glitch

Mon, 04 Feb 2013

According to a letter from General Motors to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, flaws in the build process of the 2013 Chevrolet Malibu have led to the recall of 8,519 cars. Units built between December 6, 2011 and January 15, 2013 may have been assembled with rear suspension cradles that had insufficient torque applied to certain bolts. That out-of-spec assembly could lead to issues ranging from slight noises to a loss of vehicle control.
The problem was first noticed in December of last year by a GM test fleet driver and eventually tracked back to the improperly torqued bolts on the suspension cradle assembled through July 2012 by a supplier located not too far from the Malibu's Detroit/Hamtramck Assembly Plant. Since an official NHTSA recall notice has not been issued yet, it isn't clear whether or not Detroit-built Malibus were the only ones affected (the 2013 Malibu is also built at GM's Fairfax Assembly Plant in Kansas City, Kansas). Dealers will fix the problem by inspecting vehicles for proper torque specs, retightening if not within specs and, in some cases, perform a rear-wheel alignment.

GM recalling 118K Colorado, Canyon pickups over missing hood latches

Thu, 20 Dec 2012

General Motors has announced a recall of 118,800 Chevrolet Colorado and GMC Canyon pickup trucks due to the possibility of secondary hood latches not being installed at the time of manufacture. The affected vehicles are from the 2010, 2011 and 2012 model years, all of which were built between November 9, 2009 and August 28, 2012.
According to the official National Highway Traffic Safety Administration report, these trucks fail to "comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 113, 'Hood Latch System.' The hood may be missing the secondary hood latch." In other words, owners of these trucks could find their vehicles' hoods opening unexpectedly while driving.
The official recall campaign is expected to begin on January 17, 2013. Dealers will inspect the affected pickups and if a secondary hood latch is not present, one will be installed free of charge. Scroll down to read the official NHTSA report.
