<VV> parts

[Eric S. Eberhard]

Sorry -- 99% of what I have is for 62 Spyder Convertible ... I do 
have some unusual stuff like roof lock-downs and nose badges (these 
will work on any 62, not just Spyder), badges, etc.

What happened is I sold the Spyder.  I had it for 8 years and it was 
time to let it go.  I got a truly excellent price (on ebay it was 
funny, a lot of Corvair people sent me "hate mail" saying I would 
never get that kind of money for a Corvair, and "Corvairs are not 
gold" and so forth -- all from people with no intention of 
bidding.  I did get several offers for half of what I was 
asking.  The buyer was a Chevy collector -- he has hundreds of them 
including a 65 Corsa Coupe.  He came and drove it and checked it out 
(for the good part of a day) and then bought it.  The Corvair hobby 
is changing (like it or not) as the desirable cars become more valuable.

I am moving further in to the sticks and the house has 5 miles of 
dirt road to get to it ( 1/2 mile unimproved unless I get my tractor 
out).  I could not see punishing the Spyder Convertible on that 
road.  To say it lacks stiffness is an understatement.  It would have 
shaken to death in short order.  I kept the wagon, sedan, and coupe 
(recently finished by CA Corvairs).  The coupe has PG and A/C and is 
very stiff.  I really like having A/C here in AZ!!!!  And the 
convertible was no good in summer (too hot) nor winter (too cold) ... 
I could only really drive it 3-4 months a year.

But I had collected a lot of NOS Spyder parts so they are slowly 
going ... along with a Clark's ultimate gas tank kit I never used.
