Re: He's at it AGAIN!!!

They were an option, offered for Corvairs in 13 & 14 inch in this brochure that came with my 64. I assume they carried them over to the late models. Thanks for the info. I'm probably going to be looking for wheels like this (below), but I am going to have to be cautious on the spacing because i...

Re: He's at it AGAIN!!!

Back in the 80's, one of the local club guys had an Artesian Turquoise '65 Monza sedan. 95/PG though, not your "executive sedan" setup. ::-): He sold it to another club member who fixed it up and painted it. I can't remember if he took it with him when he moved back to Wisconsin or not, b...

Bell housing

I want to put a 64-69 clutch system in my 61 corvair, I know that I have to change the flywheel clutch and pressure plate. But I'm not to sure if I would need to change the bell housing on my 145ci engine :helpsos:
