My dad was a regional sales exec for Chevrolet in the early 60's. We have
never discussed Corvair sales in particular. However, I do remember him
saying that he had some dealerships that would order more "fully loaded"
cars than "strippers". Others ordered just the opposite. He also said that
the rural dealerships were usually the "stripper" orders. Some dealerships
encouraged "customer ordered vehicles" and others discouraged it in order to
sell what was in stock. He said that Chevy had many options that had
"required numbers ordered" in order for a dealership to get the vehicles
that they really wanted. If there is more interest, I'll get my dad involved
with this discussion.
