:welcome2: :clap: :wave: Welcome to the Corvair Forum!

Your story about buying a Corvair for your 14 year old granddaughter to drive in a few years reminded me of a Corvair of the Month entry back in March 2014...

Ki Hansen bought a beautiful Corvair for his daughter to drive when she turned sixteen. You might find their story inspiring as you move forward with your own project Corvair.

I saw the family photo (above) on Facebook, and I thought it depicted — along with the later Corvair photos — why I was inspired to vote for this Corvair family for Corvair of the Month. The car is beautiful and seemingly timeless in its all-original appearance. And the family photos remind me of my own experiences as a child and as a teen as my parents and their Corvairs influenced me as I transitioned from a bicycle to learning to drive and maintain a Corvair... an influence that remains decades later. These pictures, and the family's story, to me make this a Corvair of the Month story that represents how these cars often influence generations!

Common and Useful Corvair Websites

Corvair Forum :link: viewtopic.php?f=225&t=6007

Where are you located? Depending on your location there may be a CORSA (Corvair Society of America) club chapter nearby. Many local CORSA chapters are helpful and family-friendly. If one is available you and your family may enjoy joining them and learning more about Corvairs. These CORSA clubs often offer picnics, car shows, scenic drives, competitions, technical training and assistance, etc. that can be a lot of fun for the family.
