SFBA member Laurence Jones has a passion for classic cars. So much so that they created a blog specifically to showcase cars of interest spotted in the streets over the years. A few years back, Laurence reached out to the club to ask about a 65 Monza Sports Sedan that was for sale. After much discussion, Laurence picked up “Frankie” and a love affair was born....

We have been receiving messages from chapter members and Corvair owners asking about a date for Vairs at the Vault. We are sad to report that we will not be having the Vault event this year. This event is put together by a very small group. With the CORSA convention, big life events, intense work schedules and everything else going on, time just flew by this year....

Next time some blowhard at a car show tells you what a Corvair "can't" do or how "dangerous" they are, you can let them know that not one, but TWO Corvairs survived a crossing of the Darien Gap. The third Corvair remains there to this day. First, a very brief primer on the Darien Gap if you are just learning of this stretch of land....

Recently, a topic popped up on the Corvair Center Forum from a new owner who purchased a 62 Monza and wanted it gone through to make sure it was, for lack of a better term, safe to drive. Being near The City, they decided to take their Corvair into Zaki's shop for a diagnosis and a tune up. The result?...
