my wife's family has had a corvair since the mid 70's. we met in high school and she drove a late coupe that her brother built for her. it is a long story, one day I will site down and write about it.

these days I like to drive her monza and she prefers to drive the V8.

Thanks Al

she did some auto crossing last summer with her brother and now her car is to slow and it just does not have the torque of the V8 :)

Hey , how ya doin. sorry but it's Paul correct.

No , no louver yet..... bad year at work . hugh lay off last Dec which I fortuneitly was not one of. but still did not work much, had most of the summer off. had my car in a show in March then put it away.
never had my car out once in the summer let alone the cover off it .
So this spring I hope to get back at it.
Looks like we are selling my wife's vair so that will free up osme time, one less car to wash.

what have you been up to

Welcome Al - Nice cars !

I had a 68 Corv-8 with a low HP Vette motor back in the late 70s. It was a blast but I kept breaking parts. I think I had too much lead in my right shoe.
