<VV> Authenticity question about a 1960 Corvair?

[Mark Durham]

Guys: my 62 102 hp coupe (verified by VIN) was a late car and has a 63
wiring harness in it. Found that out when I converted it to a 65 Alternator
system.   I think that when the year changover happens, they didn't do a
real good job of it back then. I've seen others on Ebay where a 60 is
advertised and it has a 61 engine and front end, a 63 with 64 trim, etc.
Since the trim was so different, and have different mounting holes, it
would take a lot of work to imitate one for another, and why try?
