No No No......That can't be the car.
I thought the rule was that when you dig any car out of long term storage it is somehow by a miracle is in pristine condition. :rolling:
Haven't you all seen all the "Barn Finds" on e-bay recently, they all look nearly perfect. :dontknow:

Maybe it's got something to do with the Barn atmosphere and sitting in a Garage is something completely different. :doh:

If this one turns out anything like the other Corvair, it will be hard to beat. Have fun with it. :tu:

Have anymore pictures of that "hauler" it's riding on. Looks very intriguing. Aside from the fact that it's holding up that awesome new project vair.
