Re: 1964 rear brake drum ?

Looks like CA Corvair has both good used finned drums and backing plates.

Re: 500 Model Hub Caps and fender emblems

Just so you know Chevy made both hub caps and wheel covers for 500's.

Gem has caps on one side and covers on the other...cant decide which.

Looks like Clark's Corvair Parts has the wheel covers but not hub caps.

Tip of the Day...Check Inside Door Wiring Boot FIRST!!

Before fuses (4), switches, motors, actuators...etc. etc. Yes indeed, inside the boot was the last thing checked. Symptoms were LR no power window & no power lock. Did have power at the LR window switch indicator light. I guess the best news was I didn't throw any parts at it. Bad news...tweake...

Re: FOUND!! WTB: One good used 1962-63 Turbo Head

All good questions Frank...I wonder about those numbers too.

Maybe there is a Corvair expert on here who can answer them.

6 total are listed as 1962-63 Turbo 150 heads in Clark's Catalog.

FOUND!! WTB: One good used 1962-63 Turbo Head

As the title says...prefer driver side but either will do.

This is for brand new Corvair person that needs help.
