I picked up the above magazine at a garage sale.
The cover has "We test those HOT COMPACTS" and inside are the following 
Corvair articles.
Hot Compacts - they test the 1963 Corvair Spyder, Falcon Sprint, Olds 
Jetfire, Tempest Le Mans and Stude Super Lark.
Jet Car burns up the drag strips - article on a 'new" type of dragster that 
a Walter Arfons had built (IE the original GREEN MONSTER). Okay not Corvair, 
but neat.
Vacationing on Wheels - article on how to convert your vans to campers  (see 
the attached PDF's of the part on converting a CORVAN).
Car Top Sleepers - shows how to build a wooden car topper and shows it on a 
1963 4 door.

and the Rambler 63 was advertised as Motor Trends Car of the Year!   Fun 
stuff.

Hope you enjoy the Corvan stuff and if someone wants the other info scanned 
I can do that.
