i didn't NEED it...i WANTED it...i BOUGHT it !

[rnch]

i needed another car like i need 20 more pounds of fat dunloping over my belt buckle.

the damn car's been haunting me....been loosing sleep obsessing over it.



SO....



it's a Done Deal.



i bought the duplicate of the first car i ever owned, a 1965 chevrolet corvair.

THIS one has the very rare (and woking!) option of factory air conditioning, MUCH desired in hot & humid new orleans.

a pic of it is in my current avi.

 

[hurricane]

[Arabian]

I love classics... they are easy on repair bills and are classy to drive....What happened to your Ranchero?

 

[rnch]

...What happened to your Ranchero?

i sold it to buy a 350 v-8 powered s-10 truck...BIG mistake....

 

[walliwalibus]

I think I am going to buy shoes and walk now.

 

[pdaddyII]

Good looking car, let's see some pics of the inside? large backseat? Will it fit in a narrow driveway?

 

[PICK3]

[puddlemonkey]

Awesome! You gonna use it to cruise for chicks... er, dicks?

 

[rnch]

.... Will it fit in a narrow driveway?

a tight fit, but yes it will. i measured.

 

[the_alcatraz]

That's a sek-c ride...

 

[rnch]

at the time (1965) car magazines called the corvair "the poor man's porsche".

 

[PICK3]

at the time (2007) car magazines called teh Yaris "the perfect first car for your teenaged daughter"

 

[Mr. dB]

Cool! Corvairs are fun. Which engine and transmission did you get?

 

[rnch]

Cool! Corvairs are fun. Which engine and transmission did you get?

dual carb 110hp, fo' on da flo'

 

[rnch]

my first vair had the 4 carb, 140 hp engine....those damn carbs were a nightmare to keep syncronized properly.

 

[Mr. dB]

dual carb 110hp, fo' on da flo'

Yay, no Powerglide paddle on the dashboard!!!!

Nice color too.

Now change your name to CRVR.

the powerglide AKA "powerflush" AKA "slip-n-slide" automatic transmission models were too old lady slow for me...then and now.

 

[binö]

what's the specs? motor/trans/mileage?
daily driver or weekend pimpin'?

wtf

 

[miplank]

nice

 

[rnch]

NOT a daily driver, bino.

 

[binö]

NOT a daily driver, bino.

you proly despise the idea, but that car would look good with some bigger wheels

 

[Mr. dB]

Personally, I'd be reluctant to buy a used car in New Orleans earlier than a 2004, without an iron clad provenance.

it's a dry texas car.

 

[Mr. dB]

Good.

 

[digimon7068]

cool car. . .have you spoken with ralph nader about it?

 

[rnch]

cool car. . .have you spoken with ralph nader about it?

FUCK nader.

 

[digimon7068]

FUCK nader.

agreed always thought the corvair was way-cool. . .fun car. . .like a street-legal go-kart. . .plus, numerous non-oem mods available to make bigger power

 

[Lambruh]

def could blaze a fattie n cruise in that all day

 

[Mr. dB]

cool car. . .have you spoken with ralph nader about it?

Nader's complaints were with the 1960-1964 models. For 1965 the Corvair got a completely redesigned rear suspension.

 

[rnch]

I wish you still had it...

me 2, arabian! i went WAY over budget on that ranchero, renovating it to my personal taste with paint, exhaust, interior...the ford tarus seats fit and felt sooooo good, the flomaster with added rear resonator exhaust system burbled pleasingly........

2 weeks after i traded it for that BITCH s-10 i was mentally kciking myself for doing so,

 

[binö]

only 110 hp?
my snowmobile has more joose than that...i don't know shit about this car, is it miata small?

 

[rnch]

engine pic..it's not called a "flat six" for nuttin!

My mom will finish my contract on my I phone, get her upgrade to a 3g and change the number. She wants to try it out from her old Blackberry, anyway, I need a new phone, thing is the Iphone was a gift last year in July from them. I have to spend my own cash this time... I don't want a 2 year contract either.

So I will pay for my phone outright. I should just get a regular cheapie phone, however I"m gonna get a blackberry Curve 2310 cause I hate texting, but all my old friends from campus, and some professors I wont see again as I"m moving back to columbia mo in February, I really want the google HtC. However, I am probably gonna join the crowd and be a texting whore, as well as avoiding boredom by logging on through the phone during my second job working at Barnes and Noble. So Yeah, I already spent 1100, credit card doesn't un max out till the 30th, which I will use to get a Blackberry Curve.
I'm a consumerist bitch... I know have come to accept this.

Oh I thought like it was a thread bout stuff that we bought but don't need.
I now realize I need to quit post first read later approach.
LOL
sorry ranch.
Douche post here.
Doubt U really care though.
Nice car btw.
I don't dig on muscle cars, as I"m asian.
However I do dig on super old suv.
like a 72 or 74 bronco is my choice vehicle.

 

[Mr. dB]

I don't think anyone's gonna confuse a Corvair with a muscle car.
