Re: pensylvania bondo bucket

I just saw this thread and chose to add my :my02:. The original poster is to be commended for saving a car that should have been sent to the crusher or at the very least given the TLC that it deserved. Too bad he is the one who got taken, but ultimately decided to put much blood, sweat and tears ...

I would be dead meat if I even thought of kicking her 'Vair. For right now I consider myself lucky that I even get to ride in it. Even if it sounds like an old Volkswagen to my untrained ear.

Thanks, I think so, too. My friend is quite well known around town by her car when she takes it out. Not to mention that she taught Drama and English at the local High School for 23 years.

Re: Dragged in (to the Corvair hobby) kicking and screaming!

Welcome to the foum :welcomeparty:
Good intro :tu:
Your friend has a great looking ride (love the wheels and 2 tone paint). Do you think you will be getting a Vair?

Maybe eventually when the money situation clears up. It would have to be unique. Perhaps a 4dr or a Lakewood or maybe a convertible ...

Dragged in (to the Corvair hobby) kicking and screaming!!!

Just kidding, I came voluntarily. I've owned a few cars from one of the Corvair's competitors over the years. Namely a Silver Blue 1964 Falcon that my grandmother bought new, a Springtime Yellow 1966 Mustang coupe and a Grabber Blue 1970 Mustang fastback that was my first car in High School ...
