<VV> Corvair : GM's "Problem Child" - Tampa FL News article -5999 or 6 to 4

[Kent Sullivan]

#6000 was really made. 

The whole story, as much of it as we know it, is in the excellent 1969
Fingertip Facts book by Dave Newell and Mark Ellis. It's available from all
of the major vendors.

-5999 or 6 to 4

"No one has ever seen car number 6,000 on the road," Covert said. "I've seen
number 5,999 myself."

could it be that GM started with zero, and 5999 is the 6,000th?

Thanks!

Joe, somewhere in the middle of '66
