To  All,
This is not specifically FC or  Preformance related  but it is Corvair 
related. 
Jerry Flinn passed away last  Thursday evening and  his funeral is today. 
He was not specifically  FC or preformance oriented but you  may remember him 
for having the  oldest known surviving Corvair, #407. He was a  long time 
DACC 
club  member and very active until he was diagnosed with  cancer.
I will know more info later today and I will post  it. I am not  sure if 
this has hit the other lists as I am not subscribed to VV   anymore.
