Hello all,
Hope many of you are enjoying the convention. My wife bought a red Corvair Monza convertible, her first new car, in 1963. Recent storage has not been kind to it. It runs fine but rust appears to be originating under and is bubbling through the paint on the doors and rear quarter panel. What is the best way to correct this? If you know of someone who restores Corvairs near Jacksonville/Fernandina, Fl. please forward that contact info. Perhaps there is someone with a booth at the convention?

Thanks
Bill :)y

You only live once but if you do it right ...once is enough

When you are lucky enough to be at the beach...... you are lucky enough :)

One end of the stud is 1/4-20 with 7/8" long threads. The other is 1/4-28 with with 1" threads and a 3/8" smooth starting top.  They also have like studs for aluminum valve covers (longer threaded section between the two thread pitches.  They also have stud sets for oil pans (steel and aluminum).

=============================================================

Corvair unibodies are no different than other 60's US cars...find a small local  non Collision  style body shop..

Some  NEW and and lots of  used rust free western panels are available  from  Corvair Vendors....  All listed   at http://corvair.ORG.

Have you asked your most local chapter  of CORSA?
