Before  everyone on VV climbs on my back, let me say the above comments are 
intended  as humor. I own two LM Corvairs and drive them as often as I can. 
While my own  reliability is not perfect, I would drive either of my Corvairs 
anywhere. On  the other hand if either of my Corvairs were in the beautiful 
condition of  Kent's or Bill's, I would give serious consideration to trailering  
them.

I guess there is a bell curve for driving your Corvair any long distance.  If 
you are unsure of the condition, or it is a race car that wouldn't likely  
make a 1000 mile trip under it's own power, you would trailer or flat tow it.  
Better than that, but not close to a Concours ready car, you drive it. (This is 
 the vast majority of Corvairs). Once it gets good enough that driving it a 
long  distance "endangers" the purpose of the car, as in a true Show car. It's 
up on  the trailer, preferably an enclosed one. - Seth
