Uh...that’s not a Corvair. It looks like a Corvette concept vehicle.

Looks like that car came from this site .... http://www.cadvision.com/blanchas/54pontiac/54corvair.html

It’s a fastback ‘54 Corvair concept. According to this site, GM hadn’t decided between the names Corvair and Corvette at the time.

The rear plate says Corvair, and the filename is 54corvair.jpg - so a Corvair concept vehicle maybe, or perhaps that name was once going to be used on the 'vette. I don't know - this is something that was actually before my time.

But the lines, other than the roof and the funky tail, are very similar to the original production Corvette.
