<VV> Rear Window Louvers

 There were several companies that made the external "Shades" for the late coupes. Long gone from production. The last set I saw were on a V8 Corvair owned, at the time, by Mike Levine. I don't know whether the current owner of the car is still using them. A Facebook post on Corvair owners group or a Forum request would probably be the most productive.
The Wheels on Dave Edsinger's Stinger are 13 x 7 Minilites. Not a particularly useful street wheel today because of tire availability. An advertiser in the Corsa Communique, VTO Wheels, makes a nice replica in a 15" size that would be more practical for today's tire selection. There are a half dozen companies that made "Minilite look-a-likes" over the years. They do look "Period correct" on many cars from the mid-60s.

 I got a call from an internet challenged owner in ND who is looking for a rear window louver assembly for his 1965 project. If you know of any, please drop me a note and I will pass along the information or give him your number. He also wants to know what sort of wheels are on the blue and white car on the back cover the Corvair Performance Book.
Thanks,
Grant
