VIRTUAL VAIRS
- A popular e-mail
discussion group dedicated to the preservation and enjoyment of the
Chevy Corvair.
Membership is free, and open to anyone - not just Corvair owners.
An enthusiastic appreciation of Corvairs is all you need! |

Stuff We
Like To Do... |
|
|
Vintage Corsa members
are a really easy-going bunch.
We currently enjoy an
active membership of more than 50 Corvair enthusiasts from
throughout Orange County and the surrounding area whose age range is
almost as broad as the condition and styles of the various Corvairs
we own. If there's an opportunity to get our Corvairs
out for a drive or event, chances are good they'll be some fellow
members up
for it.
Economy Runs,
Car Shows, Swap Meets, Club Picnics, or just weekend cruises around Orange County....hey,
they're all fun.
Whether
your preference is to drive fast or slow, to tinker or to show, it's
all about enjoying the Corvair and other Corvair enthusiasts.

SOCAL CORVAIR
ENTHUSIASTS UNITE!...Vintage
Corsa is 1 of 5 official Corvair chapters here in Southern
California, and we support each other's respective club efforts to
promote the fun of Corvair ownership.
|
|
|
LOCAL TOURS...Always
a great way to get together and get our cars out and about...We've
toured auto museums, factories, member's businesses, fire stations,
and more! |

HANDS-ON
KNOWLEDGE TO SPARE...If
driving your Corvair is the best thing about owning one, maybe the
next best thing is working on them - and if you're not a skilled
mechanic, don't worry. Vintage members are downright generous
with their time. Just get the BBQ ready!
SPORTS N CARS...
Former Vintage Corsa President Scott Wheeler and his brother
Ken initiated our "Sports 'n Cars" outings at O.C.'s best sporting events
a few years back. Good Times under the Big A!
“Great cars,
great sports, great tailgates!” |
|
|
UP UP AND AWAY!...We
all share the same enthusiasm for our Corvairs, but not every club
event is about getting behind the wheel of our Corvair.
Sometimes it's just about getting together to do something fun. |

FUN RUNS...Whether
it's on the master calendar months in advance or just a spur of the
moment drive, any chance to get our Corvairs on the road is a great day.
