<VV> 1965 Monza convertible

[J. R. Read]

Joe,

I'm back home now and have a better monitor to view.  Also, today the Old 
Car Price Guide arrived.  It says that a '65 Monza Vert in class 3 condition 
is valued at $7,430 PLUS add 20% for the 140hp engine.  From what I can tell 
in the pictures, I'd suspect that it will fall into the class 3 category 
once you get up close and personal with it.

The 13 inch tires have become hard to find, so the larger wheels might be a 
blessing in disguise.

PS - OCPG is NOT a bible, just a guideline.

Later, JR

I’m going to look at this car as I’m still not a owner of a Corvair. Ad 
states that it is restored to 95% with a fresh rebuilt 140 CID. It’s a 4 
speed with rebuilt suspension and stainless dual exhaust. It also states 
complete brake system rebuild. One concern I have is that it has new 15 inch 
tires mounted on american torque thrust aluminum wheels. I’m not sure if 
going with non stock wheels will hurt the value. Looks like is does not have 
stock steering wheel. I downloaded the “pre-purchse questionnaire and 
checklist' from another site and will use that. I think the asking price is 
a little high at $10,500. It does state that this is “asking price”. Three 
hour drive to the car so I’m trying to do as much homework in advance. 
Anyone have comments on the price? Thanks in advance.
