<VV> Corvair Ownership

[Roger Atkinson]

Mr. Smith,

I hope your post isn't truly reflective of who you really are because you come across as an arrogant, self-centered, better than other people asshole.  I am sure I have only misread you!!!!

I did not realize I had to be approved for membership in the ever elusive  and exclusive Corvair community when I purchased my Spyder.  

And for the record in case anyone cares, I do not walk around with my pants down so I could pull them up.  Maybe if you pulled your pants up, your half assed attitude wouldn't be showing.

To the rest of the group , sorry for the use of the word ass but wasn't sure how else to put it.

Roger

You can tell an enthusiast because you will see him at the meetings year after year.  You will know him as a person even though he may live in another city because you will see him at every show in the region through the year.  This goes on year after year.  I am always friendly and helpful to new people in our club or new Corvair owners.  I try to make them feel at home.  But at the same time I hold a little something in reserve because I have learned through the years that there will be those "flash in the pan" Corvair buyers who think they have purchased the last of the most unique vehicles ever built.  They may think they are special and then they find out Corvairs are common as dirt in the Corvair community.  Or they find that 49 year old cars actually have to be maintained no matter what their condition.  I have no

He will instead learn and glory in the unique features of the Corvair and as time goes by,  will share his knowledge with other like persons.  just in case anyone should ask how I feel.
