What's Up guys and gals!
This is my first chevy ever. It is a 1962 and got her for 1300 bucks. It has a 64' dual carb 110hp engine according to the po, who knows though. I have been in the vw scene with my 64 beetle for a while and i thought i needed to do something new. I hope to have lots of fun doing this. Tell me, good deal or not?

Nice car! I think that is a good car for a VW guy. Sun roof and all. Definitely a good deal.

I think that's definitely a good deal! I had a '62 Monza 900 about 21 years ago. I considered installing a giant rag top in it, like those early beetles had. I think that would look soooo cool on an early model. Not so much on a late, I don't know why. EM's are funky cool.
BTW, where are you located?

Cool, thanks for the positive response guys. And flat6_musik I am located in Reno, NV. I haven't played with the car yet and I think I am in love. These are some rad looking cars.

Great so someone hacked into the roof, they did a good job though, it flows with the car.. I guess I will have to modify the new headliner somehow...and yeeup the ebrake needs to be fixed I bet thats any easy fix though.

Re: What's Up guys and gals!
DANG! I've always wanted to sun-roof mod my coupe... now you'll have to post pictures with details. And BTW WELCOME! And also BTW e-brakes are a fairly easy fix yes sir. I bought one of my corvair's out in Reno about a year ago... and now I've sold it off to a friend here in SLC.

Did you get a good deal... Heck a Good Mountain Bike cost $600 to $800 on the bottom end... Looks like a solid car and she runs, (no pedaling)
