It also had what looked like a 'pro' or factory logo on the rear lid, where the 'Turbo' or '140' goes, that said "Coronado". If GMC made a motorhome named Coronado, they might have lifted the medallion, but the conversion looked pro or factory built. Here's a vid of a similar (might be the same) car, but this one is in AZ. The comments on this YouTube vid are as interesting as the vid, so be sure to read them. And SlicKraft has 44 great vids on conversions, many on Corvairs.

"Quick teaser clip of my recently reborn 1966 Corvair. I redesigned the rear suspension and supports and then upgraded from a tired 425 Olds V8 to a larger 455 big block Oldsmobile power package from an early Toronado. Video also shows my latest LED tail light upgrades in action."
