<It is a red Monza coupe w/black interior, and had the body number of
"XXXXXX". It was an example of just exactly what Fisher Body supplied
Chevrolet. Last time I heard a CORSA member in Texas owned it, but
hasn't done any thing with it (his original plans were to complete the
car build.)

Yes, Mark, that's what I've heard, too. As I heard it, it belonged to an
auto museum. I know there was a Texas connection--perhaps the museum was in TX,
too. Anyway, it was then sold to a private individual in TX and, as I
understand it, his original intention was to finish building it. Some folks tried to
talk him out of it, urging that he keep it as it left GM for historic
purposes. I've gotta admit, "building" it seems to me tantamount to finishing
Schubert's Unfinished Symphony but I tend to be a purist. I don't know what then
became of it.
