Re: [T3] newbie questions



JimA=> It always surprised me that the part of the Corvair that he 
=> really went after, the swing axle, was just as vulnerable in the VW 
=> and yet he never mentioned it.

Do you think that was really a fair criticism, though? After all, you 
have to be driving these cars *way* beyond spec before you're likely to 
encounter camber tuck. I was in Michigan in those days, so it's not 
unlikely that I didn't hear the whole story, but what I remember was 
problems with the Corvs leaking exhaust into the heating systems (as 
those of us with rusty VWs sometimes experience). This can be especially 
creepy in snow country. 

=> Somehow I manage to be a fan of both the Corvair (I learned to drive 
=> in a 1960 Corvair 700) and of Ralph Nader. 

Me too!
