    Thanks for clarifying, aiawind.
    Back in the 60's and 70's I used to know all this stuff, model names, trim lines, engines offered, etc. Somewhere along the way, I got old and either couldn't retain all the details, or didn't care that much anymore - probably a combination of the two.......

    Check out this Corvair Greenbriar - side cargo doors on both sides - very rare!

    That's a cool looking Corvair! Although...I tried dealing with this seller awhile back and didn't like his answers or attitude. I kept trying to get straight answers and couldn't. Like the looks of this rig though!

    It IS a Corvair,only taller.They're suppose to have rear wheels that can tuck too far under the vehicle.Although,the reason GM got into trouble for not putting the anti-sway bar under regular Corvairs was ; they were allready putting them under the vans...Maybe the guy put too much air in the shocks.

    For a while,I owned a 1960 VW van.Like this one,with a whole lot less windows.My brother-in-law told me they called them Barndoor Walk-thru Vans...By the time I got the van,it'd allready been rolled at least three times and the doors on the driver's side didn't work.So,it was only a three door walk-into van,while I had it.This one looks good too.

    And/or,why is it always such a pale blue?..What's so wrong with a sparkly sapphyre blue?..Like the kind Dodge had been putting on some of their cars and trucks...One that doesn't turn purpley after a while.
