I got T-boned on the driver's door in my Corvair by a Mach truck

a flatbed. I needed a Band-Aid. Sturdy thing; with I still had it.

Sturdy my ass. The Corvair was a death trap, just like the Pinto and
about every other small car of it's day.

I was not killed, not even injured. Your opinion does not coincide with
my real life experience. Handled well too. In spite of Nader, I could
whip it around corners faster than any other car I ever owned -- safely.
Never got stuck in the snow either. Yes, I'd buy another if they started
making them tomorrow.




Me too, Ed. I had a neat little '64 coupe. It was a fun car.
