Thanks for sharing these. I've never even heard of someone doing that to a Corvair. That had to be quite a trick to pull off.

Love the Corvair. Looks like a really sanitary conversion. If it's meant for street or strip use there's not nearly enough rubber on the rear.

Really nice shots. My favorite shot is the second one of the 1939. Although, I thought the only colour of paint they had back then was black!

I bet that big block plays havoc with the Corvair’s CG and handling. Nice looking ‘50 smoothy.

Actually, there are several of these front-engine'd V-8 Corvairs in my area, but this one is particularly well done.

Great series, Rodder, is that a v-6 in the Corvair?
Why settle for a V-6 when you can drop in a Big Block Chevy V-8? Not sure of the displacement, but either 396c.i. or 454c.i would be a good guess, possibly even more if the engine was stroked or bored.
