Famous for all the wrong reasons, the Chevrolet Corvair has been relegated to being one of American automotive history’s pariahs. This was majorly due to its presence in Ralph Nader’s book titled “Unsafe At Any Speed”. Yes, the Corvair’s swing-axle rear suspension and unconventional tire pressure settings does mean that it can catch out its driver, but that also means you should drive it in a sensible, rather than silly fashion. On the same token, we shouldn’t be driving cars at all, or even walking for that matter if its unsafe to be in any form of speed. Plus, if the Corvair was really that dangerous, would you find examples like this 1964 Chevrolet Corvair Monza Convertible for sale today? Up for sale from Indianapolis, this 83,987-mile car is living proof that the Corvair isn’t the killer widow-maker that Nader made it out to be. This car comes with the original owner’s guide, a 164ci flat six, a manual gearbox, and a spare tire lock key too.
Dressed in yellow and capped off with a black canvas drop top, this 1964 Chevrolet Corvair Monza Convertible cuts a fine dash with its dual headlamps, grille-less front and luggage rack. You see, its engine is in the rear, and it’s air-cooled too! We’re told that there an aftermarket front trunk rubber, but everything else is more or less true to original. Come along now, how could this be dangerous? The black interior of this 1964 Chevrolet Corvair Monza Convertible comes with black leather bucket seats up front and a similarly upholstered bench seat directly behind. After all, the Corvair was meant to be a family car. This car’s interior remains unspoiled by any visible aftermarket accoutrements or chop-chop modifications, too.
There’s a 164ci Turbo-Air flat-six in the tail of this 1964 Chevrolet Corvair Monza Convertible. The air-cooled unit breathes and feeds via dual Rochester single-barrel carburetors. A 4-speed manual gearbox sends drive to the rear swing axle, in a similar fashion to a Volkswagen Beetle! And that car sold over 21 million units worldwide! So, if you still aren’t convinced that the Chevy Corvair isn’t the bad guy it’s been made out to be, it’s time you paid a visit to Indy and checked out this car in person.

When Chevrolet came up with the Corvair as a radical new car, not even the designers could’ve foreseen just how controversial it would go on to become. In a bid to compete with the rising popularity of compact European cars, Chevy released the Corvair in 1960. Like the Volkswagen Beetle (which was one of the main competitors it was aimed at), it came with a rear mounted, air-cooled, horizontally opposed engine and all-round independent suspension. It also featured monocoque construction. It had advantages in both power and space over the Beetle, and it had a technological advantage over its domestic competition (both Ford and Chrysler’s candidates for the compact segment were basically just downsized versions of their existing models). While theoretically impressive and well received by critics and consumers (named “Car of the Year” by Motor Trend and selling 26000 units in it’s first 2 days), it would initially face several teething problems, and then have its legacy clouded by concerns about its handling and safety (mainly by Ralph Nafer’s “Unsafe at Any Speed”). These claims have mostly been debunked since then.
With Germany’s Volkswagen Beetle dominating the market, General Motors stepped up for the United States of America and introduced a ground-breaking car of its day, the Chevrolet Corvair. The Corvair is a rear-engine, air-cooled compact car. The same words can be used to describe a Beetle, but they looked nothing alike. This Chevrolet Corvair “Monza” was introduced in 1961 as an upscale trim, along with a four-speed manual transmission that quickly became appealing to buyers. It was even referred to as “the poor man’s Porsche” by car magazines, initially making the Monza series responsible for about half of Corvair sales. Three years down the line, in 1964, significant engineering changes were made with a front anti-roll bar fitted as standard, while the brakes were improved with finned rear drums. Even the engine displacement was increased from 145 to 164 ci, resulting in an increase of power, the same as this particular model, which features a total of 49,200 original miles. With recent servicing up to date, here is your chance to own an American classic car that left a mark in the country’s automotive history for sale in Woodbury, Connecticut.
If there ever was a definitive station wagon, the Chevy Nomad has got to be it! In fact, Chevy used the Nomad nameplate mostly on station wagons. Firstly, these wagons were based on the Tri-Five from 1955 to 1957, Then, they shifted to a Bel Air base from 1958 to 1961 and subsequently, a Chevelle base between 1968 and 1972. So, this 1958 Chevrolet Nomad Station Wagon is based on a Bel Air platform and it’s a sort of restomod. With features such as shaved rear doors, a 348ci V8 and a 700R4 automatic transmission, it’s ready for action. If you’re interested, this sub-58,000 mile machine is available in Groveton, New Hampshire.
Chevy’s sixth generation Corvette often tends to get overlooked. It doesn’t have the wedge-shaped, pop-up headlamped allure of the fifth generation, nor is it the last of the front-engined ‘Vettes like the seventh. Yet, choosing a sixth-gen or C6 Corvette is a very smart choice to make. That’s because the C6 represents a notable performance leap over the C5. The car’s tighter dimensions and more compact package make it a better handler, while its 6.0-liter V8 offers a useful power and torque increase over the 5.7 that dominated the C5 era. Today, we have a 2007 Chevrolet Corvette 3LT Z51 for sale from Lakewood Ranch, Florida. This car has done over 65,000 miles and has a driver-pleasing 6-speed manual transmission. Plus, it’s endowed with the Z51 Perfomance Package and has also received a Corsa performance exhaust to really make that V8 sing.
Chevy’s fine Bel Air is a great classic car to start off a collection with. Named after the swish California neighborhood of the same name, the model was produced between 1949 and 1980, across eight generations and with many engines and body styles over the years. Today’s 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air Sport Coupe Restomod throws all that out of the window because it’s got a modern LS3 heart, a 4L60 automatic gearbox, an Art Morrison GT-5 Performance chassis and a host of modern upgrades to make it suitable for 2026 and beyond. You could easily make this stylish classic car your daily driver, take your family around in it, and even embark on road trips within its comfortable cabin. Just call or DM us if you’d like to own this Arizona-based beauty.

1973 was the last year of first generation Mustang production, before the smaller and more cut-down Mustang II hit the scene. So, choosing a car like this 1973 Ford Mustang Mach 1 is representative of the end of an era, so to speak. Plus, since this is a potent Mach 1 variant, it’s got quite a bit of go-factor under the hood as well. This particular car hails from Lakeland, Florida, with 65,000 showing on its odometer. It’s also got a 351 Cleveland, throttle-body injection, carbon-fiber interior trim and accents, and much more goodies to enjoy. DM or call us right now if you’d like to take over custody of this rather special pony.
