Here is our Latest addition to our Corvair Family...

The paper work came in the mail today….. The boat it self should be here by mid June...

It is the nicest "Corvair" we own at this time. I know it is NOT a car - However, it is a Corvair. :tu:
From what I have been told; we are the third owner. It has been in storage for many years.

Hope you enjoy.

When I graduated High School in 1971 I had a 1965 Monza Coupe. January 2010 I found a car exactly like it locally for sale and had to add it to my stable.
Originally a non running 140 PG, my son and I converted it to a 140 4 spd in time to win 3rd place at the Corvair Lovers Holiday show in Pensacola. It is a daily driver and recently was driven to the AWESOME Springfest show in Helen Ga.

It also features triported heads,roller rockers,mallory ingnition, Porche tripple webers and custom headers with Super Trapp exaust tips.
The body had been partially de-chromed and a spoiler has been molded into the rear of the car. The paint is a custom mix metalic burgandy with clear coat fininsh.
The vert top is custom made of cloth. The interior sports Recarro racing seats and a fully upgraded VDO gauge cluster.
It has front and rear Disc brakes , 16" Chevy Ralley rims and low profile Yokohamo racing tires.
The suspension features drop springs with front and rear 7/8 inch tortion bars. All suspension components have been powdercoated and the underbelly of the car has been painted front to back. Here are some pics: Thank you for your consideration.

Here is my 64 Vert 110/4spd. The second owner repainted it red from silver in the 70s. It has 84K on it, original interior, original engine, original top, etc. I've had it for a year now, and I'm just trying to preserve the originality of what is left! She's no garage queen, it is driven as often as Wisconsin weather permits.
