<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>We would LOVE for you to bring your "Early-Early"
1960 car to the 2006 Buffalo Convention and to enter it in the FIRST EVER Stock
Corvair Evaluation (<A

You have a choice of entering it for display only or entering it to be
"evaluated" (not judged!) for its nearness to Stock. In fact, if you
bring the car I am sure the SCG will waive the registration fee for entering it
in the Stock Corvair Evaluation, as we would greatly appreciate the chance to
study and learn from your historic vehicle.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV>Good Morning Larry,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I have been procrastinating doing research on my 1960, 700, since I read
the Feb 2005 CORSA Magazine article by George A.C. Beyea, on the "Early
Parking Brake History". My 1960 is cascade green and had a nice
restore in 2000, and still looks very good (see attached pictures).
Also my car was featured in the Dec 2000 CORSA Magazine on the back cover
"1960s on Parade". The article caught my attention because I have one of
those "early early models" (VIN # 00769W-100428) referred to in the
article. I haven't done any serious research, but the info I received
when I bought it was that it was built in July 1959, on the second day of
production at Willow Run (the 428th Corvair built). My car has the
horn cutout in front under the bumper; has the two drilled holes for the early
parking brake (I have the early brake assembly uninstalled); and I have the
rare first edition glove box manual with the early parking brake
instructions., bill of sale, service manual & policy booklet (all
original for my car).</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I live in Holyoke, Massachusetts and would love to attend the 2006 CORSA
Convention with my car. I don't know if you have any interest in an
"early early" model for a display but I would be willing to bring it to
Buffalo to show it off. I've also copied the Corvair Museum and Bill
Hubbell on this e mail, because of his article on "My First Year: Taking
Stock". Thanks and I look forward to all of your feedback.</DIV>
