Re: If you own a Corvair, SPEAK UP!

I have a "64 900 Monza. Has the 110 h.p (164 c.i.) with factory four speed. I bought mine from my brother in law for $100.It was in a barn for twenty years. I started the car and thought I was well on my way to start driving when #6 rod started knocking. So, I rebuilt the engine with some corvair guru's that I work with and it purrs like a kitten. I am waiting for the upholstery to be finished and have the car painted. It will be my daily driver. I am looking at putting disk brakes on the front and adding air conditioning.The guys who already drive theirs have four speeds and get 28m.p.g if they take it easy. Beats the 15 that current pick-up gets. Can't wait to see it in silver paint with red interior!
