someone spoke of uses for corvans-the most interesting i ever saw happened in
new york city. i was there during the world's fair (64-65) i heard a siren
near times square and when I looked it was the new york fire departments
corvair. i think it was a mobile photography/darkroom unit responding to a fire. I
often wondered how long it was in service.also, I bought a rampside this
february. I have wanted one since i saw them when they came out, now my kids are
grown and left the nest I could afford to buy toys for myself. it's a 61 three
speed with not as much rust as you'd expect from a chevy truck of the
60's/70's. i went to a local car show for the first time last friday. the guys at the
gate
had never seen one. they thought it was a van that had been chopped and
customized.
it drew a lot of attention -made me happy. Does anyone know how mant
rampsides are left.
here inc new england they rotted out fast.
