This is one of those Corvette prototype thingies from Chevrolet. Most were hung with some unpronounable monkier like CERV 1 or CERV 26. There were almost as many of them as there are Rocky movies. :o
The headlight treatment for some reason evokes an image of a picture I saw in elementary school of a robin about to be fed a worm by its mother. Not that there's anything WRONG with that, of course..... :yuck:
Well, MG, you're half-right again! (And I am standing well away from the window . . .)
1962 Corvair Monza GT design study
Yes, I wrote "Corvair", not Corvette
Hey.1/2 right here, 1/2 right there. That gives me 4, which is WAY more than Rich has!
At least I had the Chevrolet part right!
And on second thought, the snout on this thing looks more like the satellite eating spaceship in Thunderball! Or possible Monica Lewinsky in estrus! :o

Quite right.
The Monza GT was built on a 92" wheelbase, 16 inches shorter than the production cars (108"), and 3 inches shorter that the Corvair 95 truck series. The GT's overall length was 165", 15 inches shorter than the early model production cars.

The Monza GT was originally powered by Corvair's 145 cu. in. 102 hp flat-six, mounted ahead of the transaxle, amidships. The transaxle was turned end-for-end to accommodate the design. Later, a 150 hp turbocharged engine was installed, and reports exist that it also was, at one time, equipped with a twin-turbo Corvair engine.
