1964 Corvair Monza Convertible Fun to drive! We think you ll agree.
Our seller tells us that this great looking Monza convertible has
only been owned by two long-term owners before he purchased it. The
second owner told him the low mileage was original, however, he can
t guarantee it. It runs and drives excellent which makes enjoying
the top-down summer cruise nights a fun and memorable experience.
The paint was done over 5 years ago and it still presents as a
casual show and nice driver. The interior is very original with the
original factory seat covers still in place and in remarkably nice
condition (note the minor section of piping on the driver s seat).
Mechanically, it starts right up and drives so well you ll think it
s 1964 again! Our seller shares that it has a minor oil leak that
he is willing to compensate for in the selling price. He has a
4-speed transmission that he is including with the purchase to
replace the current 3 speed if you decide to. The top is manual,
easy to operate and in excellent condition. Please see this one in
person, our seller is reasonable and you ll drive home in it! There
is a lot of Corvair information and support to be found on the Net,
below, we ve included a few brief comments: The Monza convertible
option was the sportiest of all the four original Corvair models.
In 1964 it carried a $2,492 factory price which included a 164
cubic-inch engine capable of producing 110 horsepower. Later
Corvairs, with their improved rear suspensions, offered engaging
driving dynamics. The improved handling made Corvairs fun cars in
the corners. The air-cooled, aluminum flat sixes were versatile
engines. There was plenty to like about the Corvair. Its styling
was crisp and clean with a sporting flair that couldn t be seen on
other American compacts. The forward slanting nose with its four
small headlights and absence of a grille looked distinctive and
fresh. The car s lines were taut and athletic, a welcome step away
from the American
