[FC] 64' Greebrier in Stock Class

[Kent Sullivan]

Eric,

The first thing you will need to be sure of is whether you are primarily
interested in a show vehicle or a driver. I'm not saying that vehicles that
compete in the concours can't be driven, but it becomes increasingly harder
to compete effectively if the vehicle is driven often, due to general wear
and tear, paint chips, etc. Engine compartments in particular degrade
quickly due to the heat, metal expansion and contraction, etc.

If you are going to show in concours, the next decision to make, since you
mentioned wanting to be in "the stock class", is which stock class. Street
Stock is fairly easy to get in to while Factory Stock is very difficult and
often takes many years and many attempts. I encourage you to download and
read the rules from the CORSA web site, and also talk to others who have
competed in the concours, to make an informed decision.

You may also want to join the Stock Corvair Group,

Hi All,

I just sent my 64' Greenbrier Deluxe to the body shop.
I've asked part of the following before, but the
replys went into the great beyond. I would prefer to
show it in the stock class if I can. I will be
replacing all the rubber. I have the paint codes for
the Turquoise inside and out. 
Is there any thing out there that shows details?
Details like:
What is the paint code for the stripe?
Should the roof be the same color as the body?
Where does the stripe (top and bottom)begin and end?
The brackets that hold the passenger seats down what
color are they? The brackets that down the rear of the
back seat what color are they? 
What color is the dash suspose to be? Two tone? If two
tone what color goes where. 

I hate to ask some many questions. I would like to do
this correctly. The rubber floor mates are very tired.
If I can't find replacements can carpet be used? Is
that a big hit?
So many questions and so little time.

Thanks in advance,
Eric
