1965 Chevrolet Corvair

This 1965 Chevrolet Corvair Monza coupe is the debut year of the second generation where the unique engineering met an even sportier style. So with this cars red-blooded American style, bucket seat interior, European-like handling, and fully independent suspension, it makes for the kind of coupe that youll love driving. Shiny red paint and bright chrome bumpers give this car an instant classic appeal. Clean glass, good window trim, complete badging, and good sheet metal really show the fundamentals are done right here, too. But we like these Corvairs for many more reasons. These second-gen cars have a sportier style. The front has a sharper point and a more intimidating overhang. Plus, the added yellow headlights and deleted bumper guards further enhance the distinction. And we love how the second-gen brings in the right touches of muscle coupe style with the fastback profile, b-pillar delete hardtop, and rally wheels. It turned the economy car style into a proper lighter/smaller sibling for the Chevelle. The full black interior continues more of that muscle car flair. After all, not only does the black look sporty against the red, but also the front bucket seats really prove this is a drivers car. The smooth dash, nice door panels, and plush carpeting complete the blackout look. There are cool classic pieces, like the thin/grippy steering wheel, round gauge package, and automatic transmission shift lever mounted on the dash. It makes for an overall style thats quite vintage and fun. While the styling was changed in 1965 to be a more authentic American, the engine layout continues to be unique. The 164 cubic-inch flax-six is mounted in the rear. The motor has a naturally low center of gravity, and its smartly packaged over the rear driving wheels. It created the same kind of size, engineering, and nimbleness of cars like Porsches and Fiats. Plus, these later Corvairs had the Corvette-inspired fully independent rear suspension and a front stabilizer bar. We like that we have the warranty card that suggests this is the original powerhouse. But the maintenance file and strong-running nature of this coupe also tell us it has been under proper care. Theres even a receipt for the brakes being serviced in 2022. The sale comes complete with the original warranty card, the owners manual, and maintenance records. This is a fun classic that has a terrific driver-ready attitude. So its time to fall in love with this unique and sporty Corvair. Call today!!!
