Sorry, the threads got crossed -

  Chaz, This car has no Monza emblems on it... it's a 500 through and through... not a bad looking ride, either...

    the '500' ?>> snip again....

  Weren't all Corvairs with a front bench seat referred to as 6 passenger cars? You got a 5 passenger with the bucket seats.... just always figured everyone knew that... and with the advent of seat belts they HAD to put the correct number of belts in the different cars... a factory assembly manual should detail that aspect of it...

  Hmmm..... I reckon it *really* depends on the size of the people in the car... because you sure couldn't get 6 of ME in anything EXCEPT a Greenbrier!
  :-D
