Thomas,
I got your PM and attempted to reply but keep getting "Some users couldn’t be added as they have disabled private message receipt."
I have made several attempts and keep getting that message, even when clicking on "Reply" to your recent P.M.
Other than that, All is well.

Re: Pedigo's '62 8-door PG Corvan
The earlier post recommended flares for emergency roadside needs. While stationed in Germany we were required to carry warning triangles like the one pictured below...
I would also recommend a cell phone and roadside towing and emergency service coverage, such as that offered by AAA. Such coverage has bailed me out more than once -- and not pnly with my Corvair! I have needed such coverage with my Toyota Supra, a Nissan Maxima, and a GMC Sierra too! If you need it even once in a year it more than pays for itself!
Other useful products...
Compact jack stands. Never trust a scissors or hydraulic jack if you intend to crawl under the car. Also, unlike modern cars most Corvairs lack emergency flashers. Wheel chocks are a useful safety item that I first discovered bundled with my jack and lug wrench when I owned a Datsun 240Z. I always felt that was a thoughtful idea. Here are some examples...
