<VV> Operation Corvair Christmas Need help! (Teds Corvair to NJ)

[Charles Lee]

This is a great idea, and sounds like food for a great Communiqué article 
too !

If you can find a way to get it to LA (SoCal), I'll drive to New Jersey 
myself !

Good luck and enjoy the ride(s) !

Get lots of pictures - I look forward to reading about one of the many ways 
Corsans (?) work together !
