(quoted from post at 20:58:26 08/10/15) Keep seeing this guy at Home Depot. Daily driver he said. Looks good to me.
(quoted from post at 23:25:07 08/10/15) Right, it isn't the car it is the drivers. See Larry's thread about motorcycles. Over 80 people die every day on American roads.
(quoted from post at 10:27:28 08/11/15) Great vehicle.
A VERY good and highly experienced mechanic in my home town had one in the 1960s.

(quoted from post at 07:21:17 08/11/15) I knew several people that had Corvairs and none ever had a wreck with it. Ralph Nader was the moron who started that and was able to get enough other refugees from the psychiatric ward to go along with his "unbiased opinion" until GM dropped them. They were no different from ay other rear engined vehicle. You just had to learn ow to drive them. Just like the Jeep a few years later. When all the Urban Cowboys began buying trucks and Jeeps,they didn't realize that the Jeep had a higher center of gravity, and that along with its shorter wheelbase caused problems for those who were not familiar with country life. There was a lot of negative press about this also.

I thought the problem with the Corvair was exhaust gases getting into the passenger compartment through the heating system?
(quoted from post at 08:41:59 08/12/15) Very, very, very nice. A Dodge A-100 could be found with a 426 Hemi though.
