Not the first
‘65 Corvair Corsa - rocket in the back
Turbo wrapped for more boost
Stock with sodium-cooled exhaust valves
15x8 Vette Rally rears
14x7 Z-28 Rally fronts
That slightly overgeared it -
Z-28 front spoiler fastened to body pan under front bumper
Mucho faster than 911 Turbos after 50mph esp. - or Jag V-12s
I’d seen redline on the tach with 15” F-60-15s instead of tiny 13s
Sold it to a postal delivery guy who stuffed the turbo engine in his VW Karmann-Ghia - and took my advice on wheels, tires, more weight nearer front bumper under the hood
VW’s doing wheelies are not safe
And a beach blanket in the trunk - if there was a trunk because of that ‘rocket in the back’.....
