<VV> Corvair Museum

[cfm]

- school kids, hold seminars for grade schoolers and do mechanical skill sets like home depot does with their bird house program through regional public schools
- middle or high schoolers can come and learn about mechanics instead of skateboarding their summers away
college kids can intern at the office as part as their college education say if one were to become a business major or something)
- automotive engineers that are employed by big wig manufacturers come for some inspiration
- other touristy car nuts in general (put the museum on route 66 somewhere)
- EAA pilots and personal aircraft hobbyists (include aircraft engines, planes on a rotating exhibit), (have an air strip available to physically land on, for fly and drive events
- airboat people
- sand rail people
- dune buggy people
- VW beetle and bus people
- automotive magazine editors for research
- authors/writers for new books being written on corvair related topics
- vintage  race car fans, just for the hell of it
- Ultravan people, have a portion of the land for extended stay people with UV's
- motorcycle/trike hobbyists with corvair powered bikes?
- CORSA folk
- customization people, like the guy that built a 4x4 early, the limo guy, solar, finch, yenko fans

the place doesn't have to be open 24/7 maybe just like thursday's through mondays (closed tues and wed's)

I thinking a 120 acre site in south central illinois in the middle of a field, enough room for an airstrip and proving grounds.

maybe GM would donate the Janesville Plant in wisconsin since they are shutting it down...
