<VV> Early vs. Late - issue of the superiority

Hmmm ... and a good point, too ...

Now that I think of it, having owned over 100 Corvairs, I've only actually paid for late models (one new 1969), and the earlies were all given to me, gratis ... Oh, wait, I did pay $50 for that Spyder with the wire wheels ...

  Charlie,

  Fine, fine, but you failed to address the issue of the superiority of Early models/inferiority of Lates.

  If you've grown weary of pressing <delete>, consider that I've R&R'd this
  cable almost as many times !

  I appreciate the proposed workarounds, but I think fixing the problem is
  better in the long run ?

  It reminds me of a flight that delayed when a cotter pin was lost.  The
  passengers were upset that we sat there for 6 hours, when we could just buy
  another 15 cent part ?

  The pilot finally responded to all the griping saying that we r-e-a-l-l-y
  want to know where that part is, BEFORE we take off !

  Your proposed solution would be just to find another pilot ;>}) ?

  If you really think I should sell my Corvair and buy a new car, just make
  that check out to "Cash" (you can each pay for half ?) and I'll send you a 
  picture of my new car, with a
  "Thank You" card !

  Charlie

  Ha! Good for you, Mr. Hartzel!

  I myself have grown weary of deleting all those posts about Late-model brake
  cables, especially because I own a superior Early model. Now there's
  a subject that needs more airing on this site, ha ha.
