<VV> Was "New Thread", now Camaro Taillights

[LonzoVair at aol.com]

Hey guys and gals,
I also had a 66 Monza sedan that had been put together by Don Filkins (of 
Cincinnati) that had 67 Camaro taillights installed... along with the Camaro 
style deck lid spoiler, and a black vinyl roof with sunroof. It was painted black 
and silver, actually quite sharp. I got it from one of the guys who bought it 
from Don many years after her did the customizing... it also had a/c, tinted 
windows, and a Fitch grab bar that I later sold on eBay. That last item later 
ended up in Robert Landers Fitch Sprint (and I haven't forgotten about the 
other mount, I know where it is, just can't get to it right now)....
The cool thing was it looked like a 4 door Camaro, and the only Chevy emblem 
was on the trunk cylinder door...no Corvair or Monza emblems anywhere... I had 
several people stop me back in the early 1990s and when asked I would always 
tell them it was a prototype Camaro sedan...
Those were the days....
It got wiped out by a 4x4 on an icy expressway in 1996... nearly the same 
area that the original damage had been done, so I ended parting it out....
It sure was fun while it lasted...
For those of you who might have one laying around, my lovely wife Cheryl 
wrote a poem shortly after I bought that car... it eventually ended up inside the 
Communique, either September 1995 or 1996 (the one with the Testudo on the 
cover)... and that was after it was seen in a newsletter from out west...
Just thought I share... sorry, I don't have any pictures of the car.... that 
I know of...
Later,
Lonzo
