Hey, I resemble that last crack, bubba. I adored my
1962 Corvair convertible and took it on the dirt motocross tracks with my buddies, flying off the 3' jumps over Mayfair Cliffs in Vista, CA ca. 1969. I purchased it from a CA Highway Patrolman who had put a 100lb sack of sand in the trunk (front) and had replaced the top.
