Yes, legally. There are open areas where you can drive as fast as safety will permit. Which means if you don't have a accident, the police will not bother you. Drive like the wind. :smile:

ha ha. There is a guy here in Edmonton that has one. Personally I think it is a waste of money, and such a nice car on these ****ty prairie roads... and it is Italian made, so it is an acceptable import, it comes with prestige, same as being a harley owner.

Actually the newer Corvairs were great little cars, especially the Spyder model.

I had a '67 Monza (that I would love to have now) The only problem I ever had was heat - or lack thereof. It was the early models that had the tuck-under rear axles ... and they never could shake the image. Thanks Ralphie!

True; if you're going to buy crap, domestic crap is certainly cheaper, and falls apart more quickly, so you can park it on the front lawn.

Actually parts are cheaper, so easier to maintain, and if you cannot properly maintain a vehicle, or afford to, then you should not own one.
Hey take a pic of that car in your front lawn, and send it to Blue Collar,,,they do
a thing where they pic out the best 'redneck' yard. (or worse, depends what side of the track you come from,,lol).

You know, that swing axle was exactly the same as the Volkswagan bug had at the time and still had after the Corvair was history. Nader didn't know his a$$ from a hole in the ground.

Thats right. It was unfortunate what his book did to a fun car.

An aside, a friend of mine put a monza engine into a VW bug, and man did that thing move!
