I think those were (supposedly) later models, and automatics. Mine was a manual.

So, no.

1980 VW Scirocco. Best car I've ever owned. Still have it - only drive it during nice weather now.... Recent pic from a week ago, fresh out of winter storage

1967 (or 66?) Buick Gran Sport. The car originally belonged to my Granny, but was given to me when I turned 15. It got about 10 miles to the gallon, but gas was <$1.00/gallon back then. I really miss that car.

Neato! They were great cars. But a Corvair with a water-cooled engine? How'd you get the air back there?

This wasn't mine but very similar, mine had a straight spoiler and not the whale tail and silver wheels which were very similar to the ones shown here, but the car, colour, smiled lens, big can etc all the same. Slammed, chipped but sadly not a Cozzy lump, it ran a 2.0 litre i, chipped. Still good fun, tail happy and made a lovely noise.
