August 2011 Corvair Meeting.
Frank Ranelli1966 Corvair Monza Local Corvair enthusiast Frank Ranelli sent these photos to Engine Block. You can compare stock Corvairs to the custom Claymobile in the previous posts. Frank remembers seeing the car we are calling the Claymobile at Eastwood...
At last. After YEARS of work, I can safely say that Corvairs are catching on. It's always been my stated goal to introduce the Corvair as a viable Pro-touring alternative car. They're cheap, fun, and look awesome fixed up. Where's the proof you say? https://static1.pt-content.com/images/pt/2010/05/IMG_3051-1.jpg https://static1.pt-content.com/images/pt/2010/05/IMG_3041-1.jpg https://static1.pt-content.com/images/pt/2010/05/two-1.jpg

Saturday I headed out to the South Bay to hook-up with a bunch of Corvairs for the Corvair Joyride 6.

1965 Corvair
Mustangs, Camaros, and Cobras were born in the '60s. But some great cars of the '60s were overshadowed by these icons. See some of them here.
Seen at Barrett-Jackson Auto Auction in the parking area (though not for sale). The Corvair was Chevrolet's sporty 1960s compact. Its claim to fame was an efficient air-cooled engine mounted in the rear. Sadly, due to improper suspension design, Corvairs developed a reputation for atrocious handling, and even though the suspension was revised in later years to eliminate the problem, Corvair's reputation never recovered. A young attorney named Ralph Nader built a reputation for himself by highlighting the Corvair's design flaws and writing Unsafe at Any Speed. Even today Nader is considered a hero by many far leftists and anarchists, even though his ideology and musings have become increasingly irrelevant over the years.
It's not a bad way to banish memories of the ill-fated original Corvair.
