If my ID is correct, the late model Corvair was introduced in London,
England in 1958 ?

There is what looks like a 1965 Artesian Turquoise Corvair on the new show,
ABC-TV's "Pan Am"

The Corvair makes its debut on the street on the side street, right after
the "stewardess" discovers her "passenger" is her MI6 agent, after the
flight lands in London.

It's at about 52:17 according to my timer.

I believe Pan American World Airways was the first commercial airline to
operate the 707, on October 26, 1958, so this Corvair, if it IS a Corvair,
appeared about 7 years before actual production.

What else looked that good in 1958 (besides the stewardesses) ?
