[SCG] Looking for Corvair Collections

Actually that's not completely correct.

Any Chevrolet  4Dr Hardtop was considered a "Sport Sedan"
In GMese.  Just as any 2dr HT was considered a "Sport Coupe"

Oldsmobile called their Pillarless Hardtop Models "Holiday"

  You could add Mike McKeel, Gaston, IN to the list. Mostly lates, particularly a/c cars and 4 door HARDTOPS. (Note that there is no such thing as a LM sedan, as all LM's were hardtops.)

    As a resource tool for the Stock Corvair Group, I would like to compile a listing of known "collections" of unrestored vintage Corvairs (junkyards, businesses, private collections, etc.)  This will help the SCG know where to look for information when a particular research project is identified.  In addition to listing the locations of such collections, I would like to attempt to also identify the vehicles in each collection by year, model, etc.

     

    In attempt to get the process started, I am listing the following collections known to me:

     

    Corvair Ranch - Gettysburg, PA (business) - Over 600 Corvair cars, trucks, and Ultravans are located outdoors on the property

    Bruce Hewitt's farm - Vale, NC (private) - over 100 Corvairs are located outdoors on farm

    Paul Whelan's farm - Dinwidde, VA (private) - over 50 Corvairs are located outdoors on farm

    Norm King's Garage - Flint, MI (business) -
