Various 'Vairs!

This is a gallery of Corvairs that I've been able to photograph at car shows, junkyards, people's driveways, on the street, or wherever!

The following snapshots were taken at the 1998 Virginia 'Vair Fair, hosted by the Northern Virginia Corvair Club in Manassas, Virginia. By the grace of God, we somehow pulled it off!

Although my vote for Best of Show at the 1998 'Vair Fair was the '61 700 Sedan (I have a soft-spot for earlies), the '66 Corsa 180 Convertible probably had the most interesting history. it was originally owned by an American diplomat stationed in England, who used the turbo 'Vair as his car when travelling on the continent, often-times pegging the speedometer on the Autobahn! The present owner (a member of the Roanoke Valley Corvair Club) met the original owner (who now lives in Northern Virginia) at the Vair Fair. The latter was duly impressed at the impeccable restoration of his old Marina Blue 180 Convertible -- one of only 581 turbo drop-tops made in 1966.
