<VV> Car Names

[Charles Lee]

Upstate New York, I loved clearing the snowmobile test track (Mudge's Gun 
Shop in Windham, NY) with my 65 Monza so they could use it.

One snowy night on the Taconic Pkwy, I found cars skidded all over the place 
and spent a couple hours driving the people to town and going back for more 
since tow trucks were very busy that night.

I pushed / pulled a few out of ditches and one guy asked if I ever thought 
of getting snow tires or chains, and I said, "Why ?  I have a Corvair."

My first Corvair was a 63 2 door with chocolate brown paint. I called it the 
Brown Bomber. It could only go about 20 minutes and then vapor lock would 
set in. My second Corvair was a 65 500 2 door known as the Brute-mobile. I 
put V8 springs in it and had 14" wheels. I loved driving that car through 
the snow and occasionally off road in a few empty lots. I remember pulling 
one of my brother's friend's car out of a ditch with it. I have to get 
another winter Vair.
