<VV> VV Ebay Pro Touring Corvair

[Mark Noakes]

Pro Touring is a term I've seen Chevy High Performance mag use for a vintage car that has been radically modified with 
updated drivetrain and suspension; they are generally expensive to build but tend to have modern handling with a vintage 
look and so are popular with the hot rodding set these days.  I would say this car only barely fits the bill; they put big new style 
wheels under it but didn't do much to the actual suspension and almost nothing to the engine.
