<VV> 370 UltraVans, made in Detroit!, Fiberglass bodies on Corvair Chassis with 4 Cylinder Corvair motors!

[Dan & Synde]

Ran across this article today on the internet:

Published in The Detroit News.  Needless to say I sent a comment the site
and to the writer.  The only accurate thing written about the Ultra Van was
that about 370 were produced, the rest seems made up.  Kind of makes you
wary of anything written or spoke of in the news or on the internet!!
Ken Wildman's site has a pretty good write-up about the Ultra Van as well as
some links to articles and tech tips, some of the good ones by Norm Helmkay.

The comment about the 4 Cylinder Corvair motor is so typical, I hear that
one all the time...Wonder why that myth is so prevalent?  Has to be the VW /
Porsche connection, all I can figure!
