<VV> The EM vs LM thing

[Robert Marlow]

Happily, most people take the early model vs late model debate in a 
light-hearted sense.  They realize that we are all in this hobby 
together, and that the barbs about which is better are mostly offered 
with a good-natured wink.

There are, of course, a few people for whom the preference is not a 
casual thing, it is practically a religion.  My god is better than your 
god.  They have lost some perspective.

What binds us together is, neither model is better than the other.  They 
are different, and each offers its distinguishing features.  But they 
are each a Corvair, collectively different from any other American car 
before or since.

But recently, I have been thinking:  Most people indulge their 
preference by owning their preference.  If you prefer early models, you 
own early models.  Lates, lates.  Pretty obvious.  But there are quite a 
few of us who are Corvair enthusiasts more than we are early or late 
enthusiasts, and so we own both.  Are you one of these?

If I walk out to my barn I'll find a 1964 coupe, a 1966 coupe, and a 
1964 Greenbrier. I think I have the bases covered.  But I am not the 
only one.  So tell me, what do you own?

Early model only
Late model only
FC only
Early and late
Early and FC
Late and FC
Early, late and FC

A sidebar would be, what do not not own that you wish you did?
