Did  General Motors ever enter a Corvair in a Lemans race?  If so, how   did 
the car do?



Well GM never entered a Corvair at LeMans, But the 1960 Corvair taillights  
won at LeMans - when mounted on a Ford! Evidence of this is still on the  rear 
of the 1967 LeMans winning Ford GT, on display at the Greenfield  Village 
Museum in Dearborn. There was no Corvair in the movie "LeMans" either,  but one 
did appear in the Disney movie "Herbie goes to Monte Carlo". Look  quick! 
 
Last year a 1965 Corvair was entered at the "24 hours of Lemons" race at  
Thunderhill Park. Not sure where it finished.
