Saw this at https://www.etsy.com/listing/853408596/ ... orvair-700

That neon green ink must have turned heads in 1960!

Jeez, same retina-burning green from that ad in real life! https://www.hemmings.com/stories/articl ... production

As if 1960 Corvairs weren't unique enough, that article details a rare variant, early 60's with the 3 vertical slits under the driver's side headlight. These "hornslots" were deleted in an early running change.

Shown hanging from the assembly-line body cradles at the Willow Run factory, this Fisher-bodied Corvair Model 700 is what's known in the Corvair community as a "hornslot" car; it's what many Corvair collectors and enthusiasts consider the Holy Grail of early production models.
