This highly customized 1963 Chevy Corvair Monza Spyder stands out from its counterparts not just because of a new, stunning gold paint job accompanied by new interior, but also due to a unique front engine conversion. This custom sleeper offers a different driving experience not expected from a Corvair.
This 1963 Chevrolet Corvair Monza Spyder has undergone modifications including the installation of a front-mounted 283ci V8 engine, and four-speed manual transmission. The front suspension and steering system, reminiscent of a Mustang II setup, was reportedly acquired from Johnny Law Motors. This system includes tubular A-arms, rack-and-pinion steering, and disc brakes. At the rear, a solid axle complemented with traction bars and drum brakes is installed, while adjustable coilovers are positioned at each corner of the vehicle. The vehicle is also equipped with 15 rally wheels adorned with chrome accents, fitted with Firestone tires at the front and Primewell tires at the rear.
The restoration was completed in 2019, and this car has been driven for approximately 1,900 miles since. It was purchased by the current owner in 2021. This modified Corvair is currently available in California. Included in the sale are receipts from services performed by the current owner.
This Chevy Corvair is a Premium listing being sold by Geghard Ohanian with the Heritage Gruppe in Sacramento, California.
About the model
The Chevrolet Corvair was introduced for the 1960 model year. The first generation of Corvair was a series of compact, rear-engined cars available in sedan, coupe, convertible, and station wagon body styles. These cars were initially powered by an air-cooled, 2.3L flat six engine, but over the course of production, displacement grew to 2.4L (1961-1963), before finally reaching to 2.7L for 1964. In 1961, Chevrolet introduced van and pickup based on Corvair mechanicals. These utilitarian vans and pickups are collectively known as the Corvair 95 (95 inch wheelbase), with the van known as the Chevrolet Greenbrier, and the pickup featuring in the Corvair Pickup market. Production of the first generation Corvair continued until 1964, when it was replaced by the Second Generation Chevrolet Corvair.
