<VV> 5999, was: crate bodies... The last Corvair, an Olympic Gold Monza Coupe (# 6000),

[airvair]

That's true. Have pictures of it happening. I once owned the car, before 
donating it to the CPF Museum. Know a lot of its history, as I talked to 
the second owner, and the sales manager who personally delivered the car 
to Boyer (the original owner). 5999 had its entire engine replaced at 
the factory with an off-the-shelf replacement engine. Oddly enough, that 
engine never received 5999's VIN, which it should have had.
