<VV> Scrapping Corvairs humor?

[keith osborne]

All very good answers.  Wow, well, as I always say, the math never lies.  Well, save for political math I guess.

By the looks of it, Corvairs will still be around long after of I've been scrapped too, so I can relax now, knowing that they're still plentiful.  

It really is too bad there isn't more interest in them though.

My owning one has at least caused one friend to buy one for himself, and made another friend interested in buying one- maybe their popularity can make a comeback!

OK... Do you think the average scrappage rate could be 50 per day for 50 
years?  That would move the decimal.

Later, JR
