One of the great things about Corvairing is that you can do whatever  
you wish to personalize your Corvair.  One of the worst things about  
Corvairing is that you can do whatever you wish to personalize your  
Corvair.

"Beauty is in the eye of the beholder".  But too often, when owners  
veer away from stock, the changes they make are not what most would  
feel enhance the car.

The car in this ad has been enhanced by a terrible rub strip down the  
whole side of the car that may not come off without requiring a  
repaint. At least the racy-looking stripes on the lower body could be  
removed at the same time.

I wonder who you could sell the tiny 175/70-13 tires to, so you could  
replace them with a better size?

The interior? Didn't want to cut the Corsa dash, so he put the shifter  
in the beautiful console.  The list goes on and on.

The problem is, the owner thinks these modifications increase the  
value and wants you to pay for them. You think they decrease the value  
and think of the work you'll have to do to remove them.
