Dare to Corvair?

Hummm,,,,,
Text from video:

Mashup of the 1960 General Motors promotional film "The Corvair in Action." Having never owned, driven, ridden in, or rigorously tested a 1960 Corvair, I cannot accurately comment on the safety of said vehicle; all I can say is that Chevrolet may have shot themselves in the foot to some degree by including crash test footage in a promotional film.

More,, compare the Corvair and "Falcon" Mustang

I still have the 1965 Mustang fastback that I bought new in mid 1965. It's in the back barn. Haven't looked at it in years. Probably rusting away.

With just a few minor mods you could have this.

I sold my 65 Crown Corvair last year and kinda regret it.

The cars are cheap to buy so you can play with it all you want without a big initial investment.
