New member from South Africa

Post by hentysnr »

Hi! to all fellow Corvair fanatics out there :wave: Yes! we have them in South Africa, not too many left but you can find one every now and then. I would like to congratulate the Administrators and others on one of the most amazing websites/forums that I have come across :clap: . Well set out and fairly easy to use. Just joined and finding my feet. I have three Corvairs, two 4 doors, '61 and '62 (I think) and a '62 (I think) 2 door coupe. I will post some images as soon as I figure out how! I know of 5 other Corvair owners in South Africa and am hoping to set up a data base of SA owners, ultimately I would like to create a SA Corvair Website. Does anybody out there know of other South Africans that belong to this Forum? If so, I have met a guy in SA that is an absolute GURU on Corvairs and has a wealth of information that other Corvairs owners could benefit from, what this guy has forgotten I will most likely never learn in the time I have left on earth.
Yeh! thanks for an amazing website and look forward to chatting to you guys :tu:
