<VV> Information to use in promoting the Corvair

[lonzovair at aol.com]

Sure JR. The 1934 Chrysler Airflow was the first unibody US built car, followed by the Lincoln Zypher a year or so later.
The Corvair's claim to fame was it was the first US built car with 4 wheel independent suspension AND aircooled engine AND unibody construction...
All those features were around, but the Corvair was the first US car to use them all at once.
Later,
Lonzo

I believe Corvair was the first US built unibody.  So, now someone can prove 
me wrong?
Later, JR
