I updated the Corsa/Monza standard features differences list with inputs from you VV'ers

Corsa/Monza standard feature differences:
 
1) Dash/gauge: Corsa has 6 gauges (speedo w/ trip odo, tach, clock, 
gas, temp and vacuum/pressure.). Monza has 2 (Speedo w/o trip odo and 
gas gauge + hole for clock but clock is optional)

2) Corsa dash is black vs silver on Monza in '65.

3) Badge on glove box: "CORSA" vs Monza cross.

4) Horn button center: Corsa "C" vs Monza cross.

5) Wheel cover inserts (rest of wheel cover is same): Corsa "C" vs Monza cross.
 
6) Shifter base: chrome base on Corsa vs rubber boot on Monza. (but nothing else different, no quick shift etc.)

7) Door panel badges: "C" vs cross.  (Vinyl pattern otherwise the same.)

8) Body badges: Corsa has the "C" logo on the rear, lower 1/4 and "CORSA" on the front, upper 1/4 while Monza has just the Monza cross on the front lower 1/4.

9) Rear cove: silver painted on Corsa, body color on Monza

10) Corsa has chrome grill inserts in the panel under the rear bumper, Monza doesn't - but grill is the same.
 
11) Thermistor on head on Corsa (for dash gauge) - not on Monza.

12) Standeard engine: Corsa has 140 vs 95 on Monza.  180 turbo optional only on Corsa, 110 and 140 are optional on Monza. 

13) Air cleaner top: Corsa has chrome, Monza has black paint.

14) Corsa only available coupe and convertible, not 4-door, Monza available as all 3.
