Re: Corvair of the Month March 2010
Sorry I didn't get back here for a while guys. I appreciate all the kind words about my car, and congratulate the winner. The pictures of my car were taken in a studio for a magazine spread. It was the centerfold model in last June's Cars and Parts magazine.
I do drive this car some. I've put about 400 miles on it in the last year since the body work was done. This past weekend, I took it to San Marcos and showed it with ~70 other really nice Corvairs in the Heart of Texas Corvair ralley (HOT 2010). We all then went on a great ride through the Texas Hill country.
In spite of the fact that the restoration was meticulous, we didn't restore this to be a museum piece. These cars need to be shared and showed off. It was great to see so many other central Texas cars restored so nicely. Here too, I'm glad to see everyone keeping the Corvair alive for future generations to see.

Thanks Chris for being such a good sport about us giving you a hard time on having the cleanest Corvair I have ever seen.

Thanks!
Photos make the "paint" look better than it really is. It's just a quick scuff and puff of primer and a duplicolor (rattle can) gloss stripe!
