Running out of steam
I have been working on a chopped/ext cab 48 GMC truck for 3 yrs. I am running out of steam & want to buy a cheap 60's convertible as a diversion untill I get the trk done.
It looks like the cheapest convertible is a Corvair($4 to $6k).
Anyone have any expexience wth these?(good or bad)

Any corvair around here is nothing more then a big pile of rust , and not even worth the trouble of fixing , as they dont bring any money after you have put a ton in it .

Corvair's are neat little cars, but most of them, are shot and in need of repair. in my area, Corvair Monza converts that are restorable, go from $500- $3,000. Triumph TR4/ MGA/ MGB might be better for restoring and maintaining value.You don't know what you've got til it's gone
