<VV> Re AC Corsa

[Stan East]

I own one of the Willow Run factory AC Corsas. I did start a registry years ago but had no info coming in after one or two commented. Yes it is believed there were 153 produced because that's how many engines unique to Corsas with AC were produced. Dave Newell was the person who researched the Tonawanda engine plant information to come up with the number.

Thanks for the info.? I believe I did the search correctly, and found no air conditioned Corsa listed.? I know they were produced.? Does anyone have any info about them?? I would be interested in how many were produced, and how many are thought to have survived.? Thanks for your help.

It is believed that 153 were built, including WRN and LOS production. I would guesstimate there are at least 50 still around. I have an AB LOS Coupe. I tell people, if they ask, that it is probably one of 30 coupes made in LA. 
They are rare enough that each one is probably very close to the only example  made in that combination at that plant.
