>Saw car and met seller. His grandfather built it. Seller is trying to save his house. Grandfather dying in hospital and wife has MS.

>About the car. Gas tank in trunk. Custom duct from front custom grill thru car between seats to above engine. Made because car overheated in parades. Engine runs but needs tuneup. Interior seats recovered. Didn't look underneath at actual seats. He extended top rack about 6 inches and had top made special for 4 door length. Dashboard not Corvair. Don't remember whose. One of taillights has hole. Terminal block hooks up taillights to wire harness. Funky box under dash holds cassettes for radio and has speaker on either side.

>&gt; 
>&gt;This custom 4 door '66 convertible has been relisted on eBay several times 
>&gt;http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=221122167732  
>&gt;I 
>&gt;don't like the custom headlights, taillights, side marker lights, interior, 
>&gt;or paint. The body looks straight and rust free, windows and top seem to 
>&gt;fit well in the pictures. Has anyone seen this car in person? It's in 
>&gt;Caledonia, NY.
