<VV> Charlie Dye

[wrsssatty at aol.com]

I've always said that the one ad slogan for Corvair that hit the nail on the head was 1966's "A Most Unusual Car For People Who Enjoy The Unusual".  I think we can agree that Charlie Dye seemed to enjoy the unusual and those of us who met him or had business dealings with him to acquire parts for our most unusual car would agree that Charlie has been an asset to the hobby and we enjoy the unusual that shines through him.  If he is now in his twilight years (months? weeks?) then perhaps now is not the time to rehash his most unusual ads in the communique but simply to enjoy the unusual that has always gloriously shone through him and wish him all the best.
