Corvair Forum

Looking good, thanks for keeping us posted with pictures. Keep them coming.

63 Spyder. Modifications and Engine Configurations continue to change and wont stop until I find the right set-up.

ouch! I have never broke an axle, just snap u-joints with the old rampy. I would check out the other side axle really close, when the divers side goes it usually takes out the speedo cable so watch out.

Congrats on your purchase, glade to see another FC in Missouri. I am right down the road from you Dynoguy during the week days, Iris road and 71. I had my eye on that van for awhile, it was really straight and rust free for being in the mid west. Here is a picture that the guy sent me a few months a...

I have gotten hung up on the adjuster collar clamp many times, sucks....usually kicks it out of gear. If I hit a bump just right the lower control arms gets blasted. Its still a blast to drive, even though I do slow it up on some routes.

Great pictures that's what I was looking for. Thanks

Went to go see them last night after work and the pair was gone. I should of swooped them up when I had...

The other FC's around me are 61's so that wont do us any good. Maybe someone can find a picture for us to compare.

Well you see the shifter rod "tube" that is attached from the shifter linkage to the trany on a manual FC happens to be the lowest point on the truck. Bad things can happen! I guess you could make a skid plate and let it just rub the ground all the time. This summer I will be adding a skid...

If only my truck was a power glide I could set it on the ground.

Nice I have not yet seen plastic yet. I know of a few stingers with fiberglass. Great way to get rid of those unwanted pounds but yet not losing the great styling of the late model.

Thanks I will try to keep them coming

Chrome bumpers really finish out a Corvair

The winter here in Missouri is still going strong and I have really not been able to the truck out to take some great shots. http://i830.photobucket.com/albums/zz228/kingturbo63/Vair/Snowramp.jpg?t=1265037913 Well the weather did clear off some, but now we are back to the crap weather here in Misery...
