VIRTUAL VAIRS

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 members Chris Pincek and Bill Stephens tend to the
burgers on the famous Corvair Car-B-Q grill. |

GENERAL ACTIVITIES...For
Vintage Corsa members, if there's an opportunity to get our Corvairs
out of the garage and onto the road, chances are good we'll be up
for it. We organize or attend Econo-Runs, Show 'N
Shines, Swap Meets, as well as informal get-togethers and simple
weekend cruises in and around Orange County.
We've organized and/or participated in many scenic driving tours to
various locations throughout Southern California. We like joining
other local Corvair clubs at their events when possible, and we're
always ready to lend a hand to help a fellow Corvair owner work on their
vehicle.
Hey, it just makes sense. We got our Corvairs to enjoy them, and the more Corvairs on the road, the better! |
|
|
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! |

|
Final

Yep, we all made it! |

skills on a (gulp!) late-model. |
|
HANDS-ON
KNOWLEDGE...Vintage members are
downright generous with their time. We're always
ready to lend a hand and share our expertise with fellow members
and Corvair enthusiasts - hey, sometimes we'll actually wait til you
ASK for our help! :)
When you get right down to it, if there's one thing better
than our Corvairs, it's the people who love them - they're the best
folks around. |
|
|
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.

event is dedicated to the memory of our good friend.

“Great cars,
great sports, great tailgates!”
SPORTS N CARS...
A few years ago, Vintage Corsa member Scott Wheeler and his brother
Ken initiated the "Sports 'n Cars" program, which combines the fun of
local car outings with O.C.'s best sporting events.
While open to all pre-'73 American cars, Corvairs have anchored
these outings since the beginning.
Let's see...sports, cars, good food, and great friends...what could
be better? |

GREAT WESTERN FAN BELT TOSS...the

in beautiful Palm Springs, CA. Vintage Corsa acts as the
"official" host every 4 years. It's our turn again

NATIONAL CORSA CONVENTION...The
CORVAIR SOCIETY OF AMERICA's annual convention is the ultimate
Corvair experience. Host cities rotate around the country each year, and are
a terrific vacation opportunity for Corvair enthusiasts and their
families.
Next year the Corvair will celebrate it's 50th Anniversary.
Make your plans now to attend the 2009
National Convention next summer in Iowa!
