<VV> ADS... Corvair content?

[Rad Davis]

Back when the Twinki and I were younger, I wrote up a window sheet for use 
in car displays and shows.  Chrysler's claim that they had invented the 
minivan was in the air in those days, so I carefully titled it:

1965 Chevrolet Greensbrier Sportswagon- The original American Minivan.

And then spent some time talking about the details Chrysler missed, like a 
good rear suspension and  3/4 ton load rating.

It isn't as pretty as it used to be, but durned if it doesn't seem to draw 
more of a crowd now.  I had six people standing around door 28 when I 
pulled in to pick up my parcel at work today.
