    I had the exact same car except mine was white with red interior. Beautiful, fun car to drive and always did very well on the mountain roads of Colorado.
    I had to have a couple major surgeries and needed the money and regretfully had to send it to auction to pay off a couple debts and it has left the biggest hole in my heart of any of the cars I’ve ever had and I’ve had some nice ones over the years and would do about anything to find another 63 convertible again.

    I am a life-long Corvair fan-boy, because my Mother owned a turbocharged '64 that she absolutely loved and would tout that she could "dust off any Vette that tried her." She also liked to drive/race that little car, so she got into Rallye racing and I got to be her map reader/navigator. She and that Corvair always placed or won those races and I got basque in all the attention my Mother and her little turbo car got. I now own a '65 Corvair Monza convertible myself, cause they're just so much fun and get tons of attention, no matter where I go. And they handle the twisties like nothing else, so I can still have fun in my "grocery getter," doing autocross - everybody is always so surprised when I flog my Vair around the course and come up in the top finishers and the occasional win.
