When I was purchasing the compressor last night, the old boy who was
trying to answer my questions about the compressor (not very well, I
might add) saw my North Texas Corvair Society t-shirt and commented
that he owned one before. I asked him how he liked it, and he stated
that he hated it. He told me that the engine had dropped out of it
twice. I told him that who ever had worked on it had probably
forgotten to install the cotter pin in the nut that supported the
rear of the engine (I'm not entirely versed on the earlies and so I
was winging it - how'd I do?). Anyway, he had owned it so many years
ago that I had to point out which version he had by pointing to the
examples printed on the shirt. Besides, if he had it fall out TWICE,
that speaks volumes to the owner / driver.
