Nader was so intelligent he'd fit right in with most of the Democratic hopefuls. '63 Corvairs were first generation, didn't have the parallel arm rear suspension, so the inside wheel would camber out on turns like VW bugs. '65 did have it, and handled great. The second generation looked a whole lot better, too. They did have an odd safety defect on all Corvairs; as early attempts at unibody construction, they were built so tough they tended to bounce off solid objects and the sudden reversal of direction imposed G forces a bit high for human anatomy. So if you get one, just don't run into a concrete wall, you'll be fine.

Afternoon Woodsnitzes. Currently dining in the bustling metropolis of Tolar, TX at the only Mexican restaurant within 30 miles with cold Tecate. Big Blue loves the cool weather and after a hot summer, we tend to agree!
