Bingo :eek:

I hope you were a donor to the "UNSAFE" media fund - you'd be getting a full length DVD of vintage Corvair testing and rollovers !

Here's a couple of brief previews that only represent a small portion of the footage --

Would you like to see it with a blue coupe or a white sedan ?

Seriously -- I think I have it :eek:

Wait'll you see the easy way to rotate the tires ::-):

Did they ever do similar testing with the late models? I can see how the wheels tuck under when turning sharp or sliding, which I figure is from the swing arm suspension.
