Thatโ€™s pretty neat they put a spare engine in the trunk of that car.
Some Chevy Corvairs had the spare tire in engine compartment.

Also the British built Ford Zodiac from 1967 till 1973(?)br>


I have a couple of these cars, in my Matchbox collection ๐Ÿ™‚๐Ÿ™‚

"Some Chevy Corvairs had the spare tire in engine compartment."

You know how when you are 18 years old you think you will never die? Well, my best friend and I were on Interstate Hwy 10 as we drove through Baton Rouge,LA. She had a Corvair with a rusted (completely through)passenger side floorboard. We put a floormat over the rather large hole to keep from being splashed when it rained. Her purse fell from my lap and through the hole onto I 10. We retrieved it but with 2 brilliant minds like ours,it took some time. We both lived to do it least a few more times. God just seemed to want us live, that's all.
