1963 Chevrolet Corvair Monza 900 review from North America

Since full restoration was complete, nothing has gone wrong.

I bought the car at a automobile swap meet as a non-running abandoned project for $2,900.00.

I replaced all the interior, the convertible top, the boot that covers the top when down.

Stripped all paint off and repainted entire outside of car.

Stripped all paint off interior and repainted.

All new chrome door, and window handles.

All new chrome bumpers.

All new windshield and window glass.

The engine, tranny, and differential were good, just needed minor attention.

The car was white outside with white top and dull red interior.

Now it is Tuxedo Black with Porsche bright red and black interior.

The first car show we went to, it won first place in class.

Everyone stops to tell me a story about someone they knew that had a Corvair.

Time frame from pulling the car home, to driving it completed was 1 year. Restoration cost $12,000.00.
