<VV> REALITY HAS STRUCK

[Louis C. Armer, Jr.]

We can no longer take our car's security for granted. This is TWO extremely 
nice
LM Corvair Convertibles  stolen in the last six weeks in the southeast. As 
you may
remember Phil Parkey and Ben Lewis lost their 1965 Concours quality convertible
around the 2nd or 3rd of April. I don't know that this is becoming a trend 
but our cars
are easy prey in their stock ignition setup and easy engine lid access. Be 
alert and
exercise good sense about storage and parking of your Corvair. It appears 
that we are
going to have to use ignition disabling devices and battery disconnects as 
well as some
sort of engine lid locks to at least deter thievery and theft of our 
Corvairs. I personally
suspect these nice Corvairs are being shipped out of the USA to overseas 
buyers.
