Dan Helferich Posted December 24, 2013 Share Posted December 24, 2013 It looks great! My first car was a red four door '60 Corvair. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrObsessive Posted December 24, 2013 Share Posted December 24, 2013 (edited) Seeing these pics reminds me very much of when I was a kid in the '60's and I was SURROUNDED by Corvairs! My Mom and Dad divorced when I was about four. Interesting enough, they would later go on to date people that drove Corvairs! I also had an Uncle that was a Corvair nut. He I believed owned every model Corvair that Chevy made throughout the years.......and still had a Corvair when he passed away four years ago. I really like your build! You did an excellent job rescuing this now rare gem. I have also a builtup '60............plan is to someday turn it into a '63. I always liked the glitzier chrome on the pillars on that model year Monza. Trick is to find a junker with that front end and mate it to the '60 body without ruining it.
