I've started keeping a list of members who have indicated an interest in purchasing a Corvair Conversion and one member who's looking for the engine that was removed from a 67 Camaro and installed in Crown Conversion. Here's the list of members, the ones that I can remember, who are looking to buy. If others would like to be added to this list, then post your specifications and your name will be included. To date, I know of at least five members who have been matched to another member's car. The Forum is a great venue for finding your 'Potential Dream Car'.

Ed Banas Looking for the 302 engine that was removed from his father's 1967 Camaro and sold for use in a Corvair Crown Conversion

Roland Gruber Lives in Germany and is searching for a black 1965 Crown Conversion with all fiberglass body panels

Jeff Guzzetta Sold his Yenko Stinger to Jay Leno and now wants a Crown Conversion with an interesting history

Bob Sandrock Sold his Conversions years ago and is now looking for a Kelmark Conversion

Jim Mehrl New member from Akron, OH looking for Crown Conversion or unfinished project

2-21-2016 UPDATES-More Members Looking for Cars

Ron Currier Looking for nice Toro conversion like the TorVair or FireVair

Mike Corbett Mike is 6' tall, but still interested in a Crown project car

Jack Lynch Not sure about his requirements

6-19-16 UPDATES-More Members Looking For Conversions

I think I would be remiss if I didn't consider other conversions such as a Crown. But I would be looking for something that is a finished car with attention to detail and engineering prowess.

Actually, I would like to find a Crown conversion in good condition. I like the strength of the Crown, as long as I can find enough legroom for my 6 foot frame! I would like to find a relatively finished car.

Old news correction: "Jeff Corton - Jeff built a Crown car years ago and sold it before he drove it. Not yet sure if he wants to build or buy"

-Jeff Corton has never built a Crown conversion.

-Jeff Corton would like to buy a mid-engined V8 Corvair that needs a little TLC or refresh not involving bodywork or tinworm. Solid, proven build with manual transmission strongly desired. PM me, please, if you have something that might suit.

Thanks!

Jeff
