Vehicle Description
This 1964 Chevrolet Corvair Monza keeps close to its factory
features to deliver a true vintage experience. And with the full
sea of blue inside and out, it creates an eye-catching classic
that's offered for quite an obtainable price.
The Corvair's styling was GM's take on a European car, and the
paint wants to remind us of that. The car was born Daytona Blue,
and that seems to be correct on the lower portion. But the addition
of a light blue upper section delivers a sophisticated two-tone
we'd usually see from Britain or Italy. This example also just
looks quite nice because of its level of originality. All the
details are correct from the thin bumpers, to the trim around the
windows, to the lower rocker panels. Even the wire wheel covers
retain their Chevrolet badging in the center.
The sea of blue continues on the inside. The bucket seat interior
came standard in the Monza, and this is looking quite nice today.
The ribbed pattern on the seats and matching door panels almost
look more like this belongs in an Impala SS. And the dual cowl dash
makes this Corvair look like a Corvette from the driver's seat. But
while these remind you of the Corvair's bigger brothers, it also
has a sense of style all its own, like the fingertip gear selector
under the dash.
1964 is a sought-after year for the Corvair. This was the only year
the first-generation body received the larger motor now displacing
164 cubic inches. This is believed to be in high-performance spec,
and it's a pretty lively motor for this lightweight coupe. The rear
axle was tamed thanks to the addition of a transverse leaf spring
like the Corvette, and upgraded brakes were added this year too. We
invite you to check out this setup in the undercarriage photos,
because you'll also get to see how clean it is under this
coupe.
This is a great driving classic with a cool sense of style. So at a
price like this, you know the deal is irresistible. Call now!
