> Well - The weather sucked, drizzley rain almost all day. But I picked up my 
> latest acquisition. It is a Canadian built 1965 Corsa Coupe. It has been 
> "sitting" a while. Slightly moldy interior, etc. But the body, except for some 
> front-of-the-windshield rust is pretty good. I did notice one Canada-only thing, 
> besides the ID plate and a unique body plate, the trunk was painted body color - 
> and repainted a different body color when the car was painted! Otherwise it 
> is similar to a US built car in every respect. The car has been through a 
> couple of owners in the last 10 years - and I'm not sure what I am going to do 
> with 
> it. I may pull and reseal the 180 motor, and I have a few other items on the 
> car. Sport Wheel, etc. I am also picking up another 65 Monza 110/PG with a 
> very nice stock interior (see, it has tinted glass), but a so-so motor (Quote: 
> Made a little noise when I parked it!) so I may do a "two-to make one" scenario 
> and end up with a nice street 180 coupe and a racecar donor body. Anybody else 
> racing Canadian Corvairs, Eh? - Seth Emerson
