Re: Corvair of the Month May 2011
I hate to say it Greg, but I really hope you are sticking with the same color.. I LOVE that color and it suits your car so well! Looks great with that custom interior too.
Now that I've got my Corsa turbo coupe I think I'm going to paint that one black. I'm partial to yellow but already committed to painting the OTHER 65' Corsa coupe (the 140) 01' Lexus Sunburst yellow and don't think I want two yellow cars even if they are different yellows.

Re: Corvair of the Month May 2011
Ya i have only taken car drag racing twice. The first time just with the fuel injection and the second time it never made it down the track. Off the line the i popped clutch little too much and the spindle snapped and tire fell off at the line. I have not done any road race, but car should do well in one, just the driver behind the wheel that needs work lol
the muffler i got came from a place we know near by makes most of the mufflers for magnaflow and flowmaster and pretty much every brand. its a dynomax brand but dont have number for it have to call up there and find out its very small , thing is only about 4 or 5 inches long after cutting off intake and outlet pipes. It would sound very good on my other corvair when i get duels
Im running TB-30 cam

I am going to stick with the same color. It's nice, and I haven't seen another one anywhere close to that color.. I was saying it WASN'T going to be red. It will be the same, though.
I toyed with going like my old 68 though...
