Wow....how many of us actually know what a Corvair is.....I think your showing you age!

My parents actually had two of them as GI's often sell used cars to one another as they move from AFB (Air Force base) to AFB.

How many remember a Tucker?

I saw one 'once'.

FWIW Introduced same year as a model 10ER.

You followed a Top Gear video with Jay Leno? You should apologize!

Though in Jay Leno's defense I don't recall the Top Gear guys personally turning many wrenches either.

I, too, saw one once. It was primed but not painted and in front of the car I was in as we were passing through Detroit (summer of 1950).

I've never seen a Tucker, but I did see Tucker.

Didja at first think it was a Studebaker?;)

Gotta love that center articulated head light.
