I always thought a Corvair was just just what they looked like - pretty homely. Plus seemed like all Corvairs had a hard time getting out of their own way but then - A friend got a Corvair Monza Spyder. Now it still looked "homely" to me BUT he whupped out a couple of nice, long rubber burnouts and I was thinking, "dang, that little squatty thing DOES look pretty sporty!".....
