When was the last Chevy Corvair made?

Officially, The last Corvair was produced on May 14, 1969, at 1:00 PM EST. It was a Monza coupe, with serial number 6000 The car was ultimately replaced by the Vega. Corvair was not "unsafe' as the public was led to believe, but was losing sales to the Ford Mustang and other popular small cars of the era. Chevy had planned to end production in 1966, and replace the Corvair with the Camaro. Thanks to a certain consumer advocate, and a book, Chevrolet produced the Corvair three years longer than planned. This was to prove they did not build a bad product. Had the book "Unsafe at Any Speed", never been published, the 1967 Corvair would never have been produced.
