Doc,  The Corvair station wagon shared the roof, door window frames and a lot 
of the rear hatch with the '61-'63 BOP station wagons.  The windsheild may 
have been the same too.  I'm waiting for a show when a Corvair wagon and a BOP 
wagen are available to have their photos taken together so see just how much 
they were alike.  The Tempest wagon may have been the most similar, but I don't 
know for sure.  We know they shared transaxles.
