I second that motion.... post Corvair pics out in the open on the CORSA 
website!

I also agree that it is not helpful at all to say the answer is in the tech 
guide or someplace in the archives... especially to the person who does not 
have one or does not have any idea how to get to the archives. VV is a place 
to make connections with Corvair folks that otherwise would not be possible. 
Asking for and getting quick information is almost like having a Corvair 
buddy standing right next to me.

I haven't looked and I haven't tripped over this on the CORSA website, but 
perhaps there should be a special page just listing the literature that is 
available and what each one contains.
