You might try the Corvair Ranch in lovely Gettysburg, Pa. Contact info
on the CORSA website http://www.corvair.org
As for the fan motor, the Corvair used the same motor as just about
every other Chevy of the era. There is a "high output" conversion that
swaps in a later fan that was used in A/C cars. Info in the Tech
Guide, I believe. You should also consider installing a plastic fan to
replace the steel one - the hubs in the steel fans tend to come loose
and the fan rattles.
