Here is an interesting, informative and mostly accurate video shared by longtime SFBA member Herb Wimmer.

SFBA co-founder and historian Dave Newell gave a fantastic interview to co-founder Tony Richards a few months back on the demise of the Corvair. Watch that one after HERE and compare notes.

      “Mostly” refers to the new video. Dave’s knowledge is unquestioned.

    I’ve noticed that after I hit the order button for $650 dollars in parts from Clark’s, my car magically starts running better! Anyone else get similar behavior? 🙂

    It would be great if there was a transcript of this interview. It’s the most comprehensive piece I’ve ever read or heard about the reasons behind the end of the Corvair
