New Guy - Edmond, OK
I'm a new member in Edmond, OK. Don't have a Corvair yet but been looking.
Would like to get a 64 but can't decide fully on a coupe or conv and also not sure about auto vs 4 speed.
There are + and - for all.
My interests are cars, engineering, programming probably in that order.
I'm 66 years old (can't really believe that), own a small software business and collect cars that interest me.
The Corvair definitely interests me.
I have a couple of older water cooled Porsches but I like the idea of the only American air cooled flat 6.
As a new member there is a lot I don't know about Corvairs and this forum.
For example, I don't see a way to send a Private Message (PM).
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Tom (Orange Power)

Re: New Guy - Edmond, OK
Thanks. It did that earlier but now I see the link that was not there before.
Maybe my posting under Introductions made it appear.
Another dumb question, where is my Corsa Member# found?

Hi Tom, and welcome from Southern California! You'll enjoy whatever you find.
Could be better, could be worse...could be riding in a hearse!
Re: New Guy - Edmond, OK
Welcome Sir. You can find plenty of info and possible the car you may want to buy at the Central Oklahoma Corvair Association. We meet on the 2nd thursday of each month. PM me for any other details I might be able to help you with.

Re: New Guy - Edmond, OK
I vote for a 4 speed. Way more fun than a power glide in my experience.
