<VV> Goodguys Corvairs in Iowa

[Marc Sheridan]

Mark,

I don't doubt that you gained a lot of knowledge from your contacts over the
years, however we have the internet now. Most of which you speak can be
found there. Every new Corvair owner I spoke to at the Goodguys events knows
about Clarks.

Maybe what I'm trying to say is that it is hard to sell people on CORSA if
you only take your cars to Corvair events. These Goodguys events are huge
concentrations of car enthusiasts. I've seen everything there from hot
rodded Rolls Royces to stock Pintos. Most of the people there are looking
for ideas and often don't know what they are looking for until they find it.
It helps our cause if we take our cars for these people to see.

Marc
