Hell Freezes over.... I saw it too.  Mark hit the nail on the head. Not ONE
corvair owner was interviewed, a semi ratty early 2 dr was shown in white,
complete with rusty blemishes on the rocker panels,  While engineers (how we
do love them) talked about the swap ends mentality of the pre 64 EM. No
mention of how the car was cleared, or how many of its innovations are in
use today.

Only saving grace was that they went after the Pinto immediately after with
much more relish.
