jtdesigns Posted May 2, 2008 Share Posted May 2, 2008 My uncle had one a long time ago,,, I had a hamster at the time and I always thought it looked like my hamster.. It had a big butt.. (history tid-bit) the turbo muffler was invented for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CWLONGSHOT Posted May 3, 2008 Share Posted May 3, 2008 My pop had two of them when I was a kid. Bought them brand new!! Pretty neat until the "O" rings went and we got gassed out..... I hadn't seen one in decades. Then just the other day I saw one at a local watering hole... CW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pingpong Posted May 5, 2008 Share Posted May 5, 2008 There is a convertable one listed in the local trading paper. I always thought they were cool, but I bet their owners are strnager then MJ owners :nuts: being that they are older and rarer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
possum Posted May 5, 2008 Share Posted May 5, 2008 Some guy here in Flint has what seems to be a Corvair graveyard. For as long as I can remember He has had this commercial property with no less than 30 corvairs in every shape and style they made. He won't sell any they just sit there and rust away. :nuts: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
