Wooohooo! I knew the builder had to be an aircraft engineer! I love the concept...too bad the corvair engines were so poorly developed by GM.

If I could find one with a diesel engine I would bite!

I got over fifteen mpg today on the way home from northern Indiana with my dodge diesel and the 30' award trailer.....I drove all secondary roads with a maximum speed of 65 because I had a low tire on my truck.

It was assisted by a tail wind though....

I would expect to get 14 usually driving that speed.

I bet you would have a tough time going 65 at all with a corvair motor.

(This is just three weeks after seeing seven corvairs at the autocross in Indy at the sixteenth street speedway!)
