Corvair Forum

Okay, Part II! To set my plan in motion. Here are the two donor cars. Picking up this '67 coupe in spring. Just bought this 1985 Corvette C4 roller. Wanted a C5, but are too much $$$ for me. The C4 wheelbase will need to be stretched to 'Vair length. Anyway, will be knee deep when the weather warms ...

Welcome! Looks great!

Tickled to death to find this 180 HP Turbo fairly close to home. Very complete. Will be going through over next winter as money allows.

New to turbos so there will be questions!

At a local cruise in

Car looks great!

Had to work Saturday, but at least I got to drive the Corvair!

Neat!

Good story & nice Corvair!
