It might not be a '61 but I'm pretty sure it's souped-up.

LOL. Yeah, but it can only go in a straight line. Looks like a 62 or 63. I
had a 61 and a 65, both with after market goodies.

Hmmmm, why a HOOD scoop on a Corvair. Me thinks the engine has migrated.

I noticed that too. My first thought on seeing the picture was,
"Jeezus ... a hopped up rear-engine Corvair?! The front wheels on that
thing will *never* touch the ground". Then I realized that the scoop
was up front.

telling them to "check the gas and fill the oil")

You can ship via media mail from any post box or home mailbox, usually
for under $2.00 (~$1.60 up to one pound, ~$1.85 up to two pounds). Since
you can buy postage stamps online, you never have to leave your house


The problem wasn't the postage: the guy buying them was
responsible for that. It was packing them up and dragging
them to the UPS station (my office, actually) that did me in.
There was apx 175 lbs' worth of the stuff.

Yeah, I know what you mean - that internet thing Algore invented is probably
some flash-in-the-pan, and when it goes, where would one find out about stuff?


Lying about that one too, eh ?
