Corvair Forum

My only tip is to get the trim and seal exactly how you want it on the glass before getting near the car. The guy who did mine was an old school expert, he got the trim to sit well in the new rubber by bending the edge to match the rubber trim slot before he started any fitting. New rubber gaskets h...

Although it looks in pretty good shape (apart for the rust..), if you need any parts give me a shout, I have a shed full here at the moment - 07703298023

Can't believe I've missed this thread, but then I've been inactive in these forums for a while. Amazing work, you clearly have a desire to build what you can imagine, and the engineering is impressive. Where the heck you found a 911 rear from I'll never know, it most have cost you a fortune. Looking...

Ok, well done and let me know if you need any help, advice or parts, I've got lots here although mainly engine and service bits. I also have a lot of used but still serviceable bits that I've replaced like brake shoes, etc. You have a great clean sheet to start with there, that's really the good thi...

Whereabouts are you Guru? You are welcome to come see my Monza, I'll take the seats out for you.

personally heave, but it is up to you, don't be swayed by anyone else's opinion.

You mean these ones? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Jeep-M151-A1-A2-Mirror-Head-10950816-/230864331579?hash=item35c096233b:m:mNsK93wh-jnocfOmNsONi0g or these? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Willys-MB-Ford-GPW-WWII-Mirror-Head-Jeep-M38-M38A1-M151-CJ2A-Military-G503-/172006596786?hash=item280c6460b2:g:LjsAAOSwA...

Ah! Mmirrors Schmirrors. I've been looking for them for ages, mine are mismatched as well. The ones that were on when I imported it are the best I have seen, They are a convex 6", a chrome back with a single post in the middle, and a rubber surround. Unfortunately I smashed one while reversing ...

Any progress Ralph?

Just to point out that you can just as easily get dodgy ones as well. Not as easily as you used to be able to, but there are a lot of garages that will look the other way for some misdemeanours. I'm in favour of the tests, at least you can get some sort of minor faith in what you are buying can be d...

In the same vein as my Monza, my 62 Greenbrier is also completed. The castle was closing so I had to use the keep car park, but it's still a nice place. https://s31.postimg.org/7fcxvpfp3/P6270301.jpg https://s31.postimg.org/f9i4uucvr/P6270302.jpg https://s31.postimg.org/5q8g1dpdj/P6270303.jpg https:...

Except for the paint and the hood, my Monza restore is now complete. Runs like a dream, and gives me a lot of pleasure. It was a lovely day yesterday so I took advantage of some free time to pop down to the local castle and take some shots. https://s32.postimg.org/tdsnn7rht/P6270266.jpg https://s32....

Beautiful colour, I'm hoping to do the Greenbrier a very similar turquoise.

Keep the updates coming!
