1964 Corvair Convertible Monza 900 Spyderized With Turbo-supercharged Engine on 2040-cars
Year:1964
Mileage:449
Location:
Blacksburg, Virginia, United States
|
I bought the car in 2006, and have done additional restoration. The car was spyderized, including a turbo engine, before I bought it, and it is running. Odometer reads 84,787, but on the new turbo engine the mileage is 449. I have replaced one door that had some rust. In addition, I replaced the front floor pans (nicely welded!). The seats are in good shape, apparently recovered. I installed a new top and seatbelts in 2010, and replaced the stripping around the doors and windows. The car, originally Palomar red, has been repainted. The dash meters function, as does the turn signal (though it must be manually turned off). Headlights work. All natural heat and air, as the vents are not connected (no tubes). Carter YH carburetor and new serpentine belt installed in 2012. Comes with 1964 Shop Manual Supplement and spare carburetor, for parts. The car runs well; the carburetor was just checked by the mechanic, and a tune-up would be a good idea. I've loved this car. It is a lot of fun. Ralph Nader was wrong; it's a great car, at any speed. |

2020 Chevy Silverado, GMC Sierra recalled due to faulty brake component
Wed, Mar 11 2020General Motors is recalling 2020 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 and GMC Sierra 1500 pickups to fix a defect in the trucks' brake system. Certain Silverado and Sierra pickups were produced with brake-caliper bolts that were not heat-treated. Without heat-treating, the bolts are weaker than they should be, and there is a risk that they could fail, which would affect the trucks' braking performance, possibly leading to a crash. In total, 20,352 vehicles are affected. Owners of affected trucks will be contacted by GM. Dealers will inspect the bolts and replace those that are defective. Related Video:

Why Cadillac thinks it needs to succeed in Europe to sell cars elsewhere
Tue, 26 Feb 2013Ward's Auto has taken an interesting look at the renewed focus General Motors is showing towards Cadillac in Europe. Susan Docherty, president and managing director of Chevrolet and Cadillac in Europe (pictured), says in order for the luxury brand to thrive in China, it first needs to succeed in the old country. The reason? Chinese buyers look to Europe for cues as to what's deemed worthy of the term "luxury." There are hurdles to the plan, however. In addition to the fact that the EU is flooded with high-end nameplates, GM doesn't necessarily have the distribution network in place to put buyers behind the wheel.
Combine that with persistent economic woes and Cadillac's checkered past marred by a lack of diesel engine options and a bankrupt distributor, and the road ahead for the brand looks like less of an uphill climb and more like a straight-up cliff face. But Docherty is optimistic and says she has a plan for the brand. We recommend heading over to Ward's for a closer look at the full read.
