<VV> For the Corvair Collector that thinks they have everything?

Why is it assumed that the original engine didn't turn the same way the Corvair does?
The bell housing source was my first thought also.

Two options I can think of:
- Reverse the engine rotation.  There are/were reverse grind Corvair
camshafts available for VW engine transplants.
- Run the machine in reverse.  It may have forward/reverse gearing similar
to a lot of construction equipment.

The question that struck me was where did the bell housing come from?
