    Riding in a Spyder with a good driver was a sublime experience. One of my high school buddies actually convinced his father to buy one (dark green coupe, three-speed manual, “wire” wheels) as the family car for his two parents, three kids family. My friend also got to use the car, of course. I remember going out to a Friday night football game in an adjacent town one night, and as the short guy of the three of us, my buddies sat in the front bucket seats while I was relegated to sitting in the middle of the rear seat (the era before universal seat-belt usage). Sitting in that position (right near the engine!) listening to the sound of the air-cooled engine’s fan as the driver went up and down through the gears as we negotiated a bunch of S-turns on the twisty road to the adjacent town was something to experience. My friend even claimed to have outrun a cop car once, and he wasn’t the BSing type. So sad that the Corvair was allowed to die. It was a far superior car (brilliant Ed Cole design (other than the swing axles!); unfortunate death in a plane crash) to the VW Bug which it was created as a bulwark against in the first place, and probably even the Porsches of that era. Ralph Nader’s screed and the astonishing success of the Mustang were other factors in its demise. Also owned a Corvan in the late 1960s. RIP Corvairs.

    I love Corvairs, especially the Spyders! I learned to drive stick on a friend's mom's '63 black convertible, which she let us drive to our early tee time at the golf course so she wouldn't have to be up at the crack of dawn. Great memories! BTW, they restored it and still own it, all these years later. Great episode!

    Agreed. Nader was a shortsighted jackass. This was an excellent little car with an admittedly major flaw, but one that was easy to address. Look at the cars from the 70's, the era of automotive malaise, and ask yourself this. Were we better off having moved away from cars like the Corvair, or did we in fact, give up ground to imports by focusing on large, ugly, inefficient land yachts? Nader set us back at least a decade or two.

    Corvairs were very common cars when I was young. Their main attraction, (their uniqueness in the American market,) ended up costing them in the long run. Many people did not know about or understand their unique tire pressure requirements. Corvairs were also known for oversteering in turns during an era when most U.S. cars tended to understeer. Many Chevrolet dealer mechanics didn't like working on Corvairs. They were just too different. As Corvairs got older, many of them lost their drivetrains to dune buggy projects. Overall, I thought they were interesting cars.

Real Kelsey Hayes wire wheels were an (expensive) option. My first car was a black 62 Monza, bought for $40. I also had 2 64 Monza convertibles.

    Hi Justin, you have done it again! You have produced the most accurate video on KZread in regards to a VERY underrated automobile that received a VERY bum rap. I am 64 years old and I have been an ASE Master Automobile Technician MOST of my life. The Chevrolet Corvair came out in 1960 at the same time as the Ford Falcon and the Plymouth Valiant also did. By the way, the Corvair, Falcon and the Valiant all had six cylinder engines (at the time). These car(s) where nicknamed by the automotive news media as the "the new compacts". Their where already two American manufactured compact vehicle(s) in production at the time, such as the American Motors - Rambler American and the Studebaker Lark, but they did not sell very well. Chevrolet Motor Division of GM (General Motors) wanted to also target a "third party" such as the "Volkswagen Beetle subcompact" the VW Beetle was, four cylinder rear wheel drive, air cooled, horizontally opposed "pancake" or "boxer" rear engine as was the Porsche 356 (4 cyl), the Porsche 912 (4 cyl) and the Porsche 911 (6 cyl). In the long run, In 1962, Chevrolet Motor Division came out with the Chevy II/Nova to better compete with the Falcon and Valiant because there out selling the Corvair two to one. The Corvair station wagon "Lakewood" did not sell to good and was dropped in 1962 for more room in the final assembly to produce the Corvair Monza convertible which sold much better. The deluxe Monza trim package out sold the base model(s) 500 and 700. My late grandmother drove a 1964 Corvair 500, and my late mother drove a 1963 Corvair 700. There where two generation(s) of Corvair(s). First generation: 1960-1964, were all two door or four sedan(s) except for the convertible of course. Second generation: 1965-1969 where all hardtop(s) except Monza convertible, or should I say "soft top". The convertible was only available on the Monza trim level as was the Corvair Spyder 1964 and below "first generation" and Corsa 1965 and up "second generation". The Spyder and the Corsa could be ordered as a convertible. The mechanical difference(s) from the first generation and second generation Corvair where much the same, except for the rear suspension. In 1964, GM added a heavy duty transvers leaf spring "like used on the Chevrolet Corvette" to limit the mount of rear suspension travel. By the way the Corvette is equipped with IRS (independent rear suspension) also. 1n 1965 saw two universal joints per drive axel instead of just one, this made it so the rear wheels could only travel up or down vertically, instead of tucking under on hard turns. I my opinion the Chevrolet Corvair was a automobile that competed only with it's self. The closest automobile to the Corvair is a Porsche 911. Please reply. Dave...

    For the WYR, I'm going to go with the Corvair in both categories, mostly because I have a 1966 convertible ("late open" in Corvair-eze). That being said, the Karmann Ghia convertible is cool ( the coupe is just cramped and S-L-O-W-W-W), the Studebaker is nice, particularly with a V8, the Pontiac has a rear transaxle like the Corvair as well as the Half-a-389 4-cylinder and a "rope" driveshaft connecting the two, the Rambler and Falcon are pleasant but conventional, and the Spitfire has Italian styling with little British roadster fun. A shame we don't have this kind of variety anymore. Good video! By the way,, this year's Corvair International meet is July 21-24 in Dayton, which isn't too far from you.

    63 Studebaker 63 Corvair A vintage Yahoo account for a lover of vintage automobiles. Makes perfect sense. One of the first cars I ever drove when I first got my license was a corvair Monza that was the car my mom drove. It was a two-door black with a red interior. It was a good solid car It had plenty of power and it handled really well. For a high school kid it was a fun car to drive. I don't care what Ralph Nader said I believe that corvair was no more unsafe than any other comparable size car of that era. Nader was just trying to make a name for himself somehow and pick the corvair as an easy target. I got a kick out of the picture that you showed of the convertible with the family inside of it. Nobody was wearing seat belts and it appeared that the sun was either standing up on the back floor or maybe on the seat and looking out of the car. One good bump and he might have been launched right out. It was a different time back then for sure. The Corvair engine was reliable and fairly trouble-free much like a VW engine only bigger with more power. Keep the oil changed and the fan belt adjusted properly and you will have no issues. You just had to keep an eye on the push rod tube seals and the rocker cover gaskets for leaks.

    Love this one, Jay! My first car was a 1964 Monza Spyder convertible, which I drove from junior year of high school through college. It was an absolute blast to drive, and I followed it up with three second generation Corvairs (which I'd love to see featured - they were one of the best handling American cars ever). The swing axle handing was fine if you kept the front tires at the proper inflation (less than 20 pounds) and was even further improved if you added an anti-sway bar to the rear suspension (these became standard late in the '64 model year). One quirk you wouldn't know unless you drove one: those wire wheel covers (not real wire wheels) were so heavy that they developed some serious centrifugal force. Hit a pothole and high speed and they would fly off and roll right next to you for quite a distance. They were expensive to replace, but they looked so sharp that you'd go down to the boneyard and try to find new ones. Keep up the great work, and remember, "You never forget your first love..." Andy

Still, it was fun to drive and I'd love to have a Spyder. I only personally knew of one owned by a fella I met in college. Because of that turbo it invited fast, hard driving and he wore it out in 6 months. But his mom probably bought him another car.

Also, honorable mention goes to a 1962 Simca 1000, a four door sedan that no average American male could easily ingress or egress, front or rear, that had an engine displacement half that of my present day motorcycle, but it was fun to drive since the clutch pedal had about a 1.25 inch travel, and the throw of the 4 speed transmission wasn't much more.

I have nothing against Corvairs, I just like a lot other cars from this era much more. In the firs scenario I'd choose the 1963 Studebaker Lark Daytona by a mile and in the second the 1963 Pontiac Tempest, although it took me a second to choose between that and the Spitfire.

    Hi Jay! AAAAhhhh. . .The Corvair Monza Spyder! Such a cool machine! The later ones Called the Corsa had 180 H.P. in the 164 CID mode. One thing I always wanted to know, was. . .if the back seat folded down on the Convertible, the same way it did on the Coupes and Sedans. That was a pretty cool feature! The Corvair has a pretty small trunk, and in some versions, the spare tire was up in front, which is not a lot of space! So, Chevrolet had the wisdom to make the upper part of the rear seats fold down and form a package/luggage shelf. It even had a little metal piece at the front to help keep any items from smacking into the back of the front seats. I think maybe that they mounted the spare in the front on the '63 you showed. They were mostly mounted in the rear opposite of where the battery is. The jack was mounted up front in the trunk, though. If I remember correctly the mounting piece in front could be equipped with a bolt and you could mount the spare there, where they were for the station wagon versions. If you look closely at the video where you show the engine, there is a heat shield for the turbo on that right hand side. You will notice it has a "dent" in it. It was put in deliberately so the spare tire wouldn't be up against the heat shield when stowed. The Spyder also had that special dash, which is quite cool! If the shifter knob is the correct one on the '63 conv, then it is a three speed. The four speed had a white shift knob. My '64 was a 4 speed and had the white knob. It was the 110 H.P. version of the 164 cu. in. engine. The 1963 has the 145 cu. in. engine. I believe the '61 was the first with the 145 but I am not sure The 1962 was, though because the coupe I had was the 102 Super Turbo Air, with powerglide. Enough Corvair geeking for now! WYR! Hard again! I was all ready to pass up the Falcon for the 'vair, until that Lark Daytona popped up!! HAVE to go LARK there, especially with one of the R series ;engines!! #2, though, CORVAIR MONZA SPYDER for me!

    You are correct about the '61 being first with the 145ci motor. I owned a '61 4dr model 700 at one time. Loved that car. Wish I had never sold it or the otherCorvairs I have owned at one time or another. The next one I get will be the last car I buy. They will have to sell it after I die LOL.

    Sweet choices =) I just got back from the Gilmore Auto Museum it’s going to be an epic month plus I still have stuff left over from Classic auto Mall that I haven’t gotten to yet If everything goes good, today’s going to be Marmon V6 day the engine episode is going to be the Marmon V16 and I got to do a Marmon V16 car. The car will be first. And then right after will be the episode But it was super hard to even pick that car because in the pipeline is also a 1935 Auburn Speedster 1954 Kaiser Darin 1958 Packard hawk 1950 Studebaker commander bullet dose 1920 Paige 1927 Erskine 1917 Mercer 1926 Saint Clair 1934 De Soto airflow 1937 Studebaker coupe express 1932 Essex six 1937 Packard, 12 1938 Chrysler Royal But it’s worth pointing out I might’ve missed a couple. It’s also worth pointing out that I didn’t get in any of those cars except for the De Soto because that is car that I really want to buy one day I was blown away by lots of space in that car, even though , it’s a smaller version the Chrysler air flows bigger

On the Autobahn he told me that a Jag or Mercedes would come up on him, flash their lights and attempt to pass, he would downshift, and leave them in the dust. Also on a sidenote the army made him remove the SS badging. I guess the term SS was still a sensitive topic in 62.

WYR 1: Ghia and Corvair WYR 2: Corvair,and Spitfire. I had a 64 Spyder for about 4 years fully restored. Handling? Easily cured with an aftermarket camber compensator from Empi back in the day.

    The only two things really wrong with these cars is that America wasn't ready to change it's approach to motoring in the way a rear-engine car requires, and that cost-cutting led GM to not make sway bars standard equipment. This car was advanced engineering in so many ways and was a precursor to the 'pony cars' which were yet to come. Many hot rodders got shamed by these, especially the 2nd Gen Monza turbo. They were not without faults as the pushrod tubes leaked which if left alone caused engine bay fires, and if the belt adjustment wasn't kept up with as it wore, they were prone to 'throwing' the fanbelt off at high revs. There was also a problem with engine and exhaust fumes entering the cabin when the windows were closed in the winter. Back then styling was everything and safety wasn't on the plate at all; imagine your forehead against that dashboard top edge or the steering column crushing your chest in a frontal crash. But this was all cars of the time, not just the Corvair, and it's long lifetime on the market proved it's value and worth. The 1st gen Spyders and the 2nd gen Monza turbos ate up the sports car competition of the time in the hands of a skilled driver, and the car was renowned for going through snow with ease when other cars couldn't. For WYR Jay has topped himself with making it tough to choose. The Falcon was Ford's sleekly-styled lightweight entry and the initial design they used for many successful smaller cars. The Lark was one of the most economical cars to buy and own that the US ever built and stylish for it's time. The Karman Ghia was one of the most beautiful car bodies ever built though it didn't have much more going for it. And while the later Monza turbos were even faster, this Corvair takes the spotlight for innovation and performance. All were awesome cars in their own way. For the second round, the Pontiac was also a study in car engineering and innovation, though the transmission was a bit weak and the 'rope' driveshaft problematic. The Rambler was a solid economical car which was very popular in it's day, perhaps the most value for the money ever offered in the US market at the time and AMC would continue that tradition. The Spitfire epitomized what the English sports car was all about, minimalist and unrefined but great fun to drive. Once again the Corvair shines in all the places these other cars do but offering more where they were lacking. As a footnote I do love the Falcons which came in flavors from cheap to fast to family-friendly, and the Tempest was probably the best-handling car built in the US at the time; the first of many great cars coming from DeLorean's leadership. These were underappreciated cars for their time but to me rank right up there with this Corvair as cars I'd like to own.

    I lived on Hillside Ave in Winsted, CT in the early 90’s. Seven houses down from Rose Nader, Ralph Nader’s mother. Whenever Ralph’s Porsche or Lincoln was parked outside his mom’s house, a guy in a baby blue Corvair would drive up and down the street. He would turn around next to the carriage house that faced Hinsdale Ave, right across from our Queen Anne Victorian house. (We would hear the chestnuts pop every time he did this) Mom would say, “the Corvair is back, Ralph must be up the street.” It was funny to us kids. He did this as if to say, “I’m still alive!” Rose Nader taught me how to make Lebanese bread as she was an immigrant. She was a sweet little old lady. Clair, her daughter lived across the street. Neither one of them had any nice things to say about what GM did to Ralph. The hatred for GM was very much a part of their lives. She once told me, along with Clare, that a GM rep showed up a few days before he was to testify to Congress about GM creating smear campaign against him… and offered her a brand new 1965 Cadillac, if… “she convinced her son to not testify.” She yelled at him to get off her porch. Clare heard it and got in her Volvo and chased the Cadillac down Hillside Ave and onto Main Street. This bribery attempt was later mentioned in Ralph’s autobiography. She was sweet, but very tough. Mom and stepdad sold our Winsted house in 1999, and moved to a larger house in Farmington. It’s now occupied by a Republican representative candidate who was arrested for secretly installing a tracker on a woman’s car who he had been stalking. She had a restraining order against him at the time. Lots of Trump flags on the house (and his trucks, and RV’s) last time we drove by. It’s sad to see a convicted criminal living in your childhood home.

It stated that a 4-speed manual was standard and the only transmission available in a Spyder. It could have been a 1964 ad. Talking about their other model cars, there was another ad stating that you could but an Impala for as little as $2600. It also talked about Chevy's shimmy-less steering wheel. One of the automotive instructors when I was in college had a Porsche 912 which he put a Corvair 150 horse turbocharged engine into. I'd go with the Karmann Ghia. There are all kinds of more powerful VW engines which just bolted in. You didn't have to stay with the 36 or 40 horse which came in it.

    Wasn't Corvair the first car put on the Ralph Nader list as bad?

    I’m not sure if it was the first car, but it was definitely a car that Ralph Nader didn’t approve of. There were lots of cars that had swing axles back in the day Volkswagen products, Porsche products Tatra T87 was known to be a tricky to handle car. Ralph Nader was just out to make a name for himself, and Corvair was an easy target.

    4:50 I don't know if I'd want to go 103 mph in a Corvair. I know many people said Ralph Nader's book was somewhat hyperbolic, but still, 103 in that car ... not sure.

    I personally wouldn't want to go 100+ in any 60's car. The Corvair's issue at that speed, absent some added weight in the luggage compartment, would be front wheel lift off.

    In the first scenario, I would take the Corvair. In the second scenario, I would take the Pontiac Tempest.
