<VV> WANTED: 1964 TURBO SPYDER CONVERTIBLE

[Bryan Blackwell]

Just to be clear - the only "change" I can see that was really made to 
the Corvair as a result of Nader was keeping them in production for 3 
more years!

Of course there's the DOT equipment on the '67 and later cars.  But not 
one suspension change of any kind because of ol' Ralphie.  The early 
model changes, and for that matter the late model redesign were driven 
(ha!) by the Corvair's move from economy to sporty in the marketplace.

Now, buying a '64 because that's the year your wife was born is a great 
reason.  But I wouldn't advertise it too often :-)
