To Norm, Dick, and other interested parties:
I am running for the BOD as the person I am. Humor is a part of my persona
and I have no intention of putting on a false front for the sake of
politics. It is a matter of record that I frequently preach the mantra of
"Earlies are Better" - for me to drop that now would be to present myself as
something I am not. I will let the facts of my life reveal my true person.
Let anybody with any Corvair, Early OR Late, ask me for help or advice and I
will do the best I can for them.
It was a Late Model Corvair that got me through college and Medical School,
and it is a Late Model Corvair I bought for my son.
As a point of fact, all of my own current Corvairs are 1964s. It is easier
for me to maintain and restore them that way, but it doesn't mean I am
unable to appreciate the virtues of different models and different years.
I only run manual fuel pumps and standard ignition systems on my Corvairs,
and I always adjust my valves cold. I prefer stock restorations to
modified, because I am interested in history and I like seeing the cars the
way they were.
Still, that does not mean I cannot enjoy seeing modified Corvairs. I am
awed and amazed at some of the creative and technologically advanced
creations that appear at Corvair shows.
So I occasionally poke fun at the way other people do things. What do you
expect from a guy who restored a Sedan!?? If you really think that means I
don't like your car or appreciate the efforts you put into it, then you
really don't know me very well.
I am not running for the BOD to pad my resume or to boost my ego in some
way. I am secure with myself as I am. I do believe, however, that I have
some skills and talent that can be of use of the CORSA BOD. As I said in my
official campaign statement, in spite of any perceptions you may have about
me and my preferences for Aqua Colored Four Door Early Corvairs, if I am
elected to the BOD I will look after the best interests and welfare of All
Corvairs.
