This may  have been discussed before, but I couldn't find it in the   
archives...

Does anyone know the drag coefficient of the Corvair?  Any idea where I  
might 
find  it?

Contact the School of aeronautics at Caltech (_http://www.caltech.edu_ 
(http://www.caltech.edu) )  they did wind  tunnel
testing of the Corvair.
 
I know because I've seen pictures of the testing. I worked there for 15  
years.
