<VV> Buffalo Convention and a new CORSA Member

[Louis C. Armer,Jr.]

Welcome to you and Taylor! I am sure you will be able to find good 
mechanics in Indiana if you need them
and I encourage both of you to join a local Corvair club or two :-) 
in your area. We need "Rookies" in the
Corvair community and they can be both young and old. I was both when 
I joined the Corvair owners in 1991.
I had never owned or driven a Corvair prior to joining and if you 
read my current post about the Convention you
will get the idea that I am now hooked on our great little collector car.

Corvairly,
Chuck Armer
