<VV> The Rising Price of Corvairs

[peter koehler]

Hey! Let's chat about something new here. How about the 
rising price of Corvairs? I mean this is ridiculous. Maybe 
Cal and Joan got all the deals back in the early '70's?? 
My first Corvair was a 1963 Monza 4 door sedan 
non-hardtop. It was also non-engine, but it had really 
cute bucket seats. In a four door! How cool? So I bought 
it for $10! That was in 1968. I had to pay $20 for the 
1960 Rambler American station wagon (that was chopped down 
to a pickup - El CaMerican?) so I could trade that piece 
for a tired 1961 Monza coupe that did have an engine. 
Swapped it out and drove the wheels off that 4 door. The 
rest, as they say, is history. So was that first Corvair 
after I took out a telephone pole with it one afternoon. 
The one car accident. Was Ralf right?

Oh yeah, back to rising prices. I had to pay $2100 this 
past February for the twin to my first Corvair. At least 
this one had an engine in it!! What's your story? -
