<VV> [fastvair] Tool idea and Corvair Racer-Tech "Yellow Pages"

[Bryan Blackwell]

Well, if you go to my site right now, you'll find a vendor list.   
You'll also find that many of the individual pages do link to those  
vendors.  *And* you'll find that the vendor contacts have links to  
their web pages, at least if they have a page.

<scratches head>

I suppose it could be considerably more elaborate, but we'd need a  
good data source online of who has what.

Periodically I ask for vendors to send me their info, so the folks on  
the list are the ones who have asked to be there.  If *you* are a  
vendor and want to be added, please send me contact info plus a short  
write up, and I'll do so.

In case you haven't looked, my site is in my signature block.  You  
can also find it by running "Corvair racing" through a search engine.
