65 Corvair Convertible
« on: April 16, 2024, 09:01:15 PM »
Do I kill my friend who showed my wife the car, since it's in our garage now.  It's running and not in bad shape.  About 15 dings and needs paint after the dings.  Guess it will be something that will grow on me.
I  don't have enough projects going.  Anybody else here have a corvair??

Ha, it’s pretty collectible nowadays. Clean it up and advertise it, someone will buy it.

Pics or it didn’t happen  :hello:

I have a few Corvair stories, fun cars to drive regardless what Ralph Nader thinks!

A little TLC on the dings, it will be as sharp as a tack. Good looking rig, your wife did well. :tup:

Looks gorgeous from afar! Not one of the standard classics but its got those sleek bodylines.  I personally like the Corvairs

Cool-looking classic.
