<VV> 65 monza newbie

[Scott Howey]

Wow, what a warm welcome. I think I have either just joined the 
friendliest auto enthusiast group ever, or I joined a cult... Maybe it's 
both?..haha. Thanks for the welcome. To answer a few of the questions ...
I live in Hesperia, Ca. Its just south of Victorville and northwest of 
San Bernardino but I frequently travel "down the hill" to the inland 
empire.  I am a decent mechanic and have had a few old cars (72 Datsun 
510, 66 VW bug, 64 Chevelle, 72 Nova). I have done head gaskets, timing 
chains, brakes, clutches, valve adjustments, carb syncing, and such. 
This is my first Corvair though. I am pretty confident I can do most of 
the work on the Corvair myself. However, I am smart enough to know I 
don't know much...lol, so I will be picking your brains. I do have at 
the top of my list to buy a good repair manual and order a few catalogs. 
I took some more pictures of the car to show you guys. Heres a link. Let 
me know what you think.
