Charlie Dye isn't any "nuttier" than the rest of us.  I'm not sure the 
English would even call him eccentric.  He's fun to talk to at shows and listens 
better than some of us.  I even understand his ads now.  If he ever got around to 
cataloging, cleaning up and listing all his stuff he'd be a rich man.

age 51, the 63 turbo convert is my first, long history in our family of 
corvairs though.
hate to burst your bubble here clark, but i know charlie dye, and know that 
he has corvair parts, lots of them, as i helped him load up a TON of them 
when Larry's closed in AZ last year, i do not think that he sold all of them 
since,

 good guy, a bit nutty but a good honest fellow
