  ...More spectacular, perhaps, will be a public attempt to tip over a Corvair by 
  roaring it around on an obstacle course set up in a parking lot near the 
  convention. Convention planners promise, of course, that the Corvair 
  won't tip over and will thereby disprove Mr. Nader's charges once and for all. 
  ("The damn thing better not tip over," one quips.)

  "I'm not worried about it at all," says 16-year-old Larry Claypool, a Chicago 
  High-school senior who has volunteered his car (a 1963 model) and his neck

  so does his brother. 

  "We've had Corvairs in the family since I was in first grade," he says. "The car just 
  doesn't deserve the bad name Ralph Nader gave it."

  Others share that view. "About the only way I could think of to tip my Corvair over 
  would be to drive it off a cliff," says Rick Norris, a Charleston, W.Va., draftsman, 
  who was recently elected president of the society...
