[200q20v] 50's something Corvair digression

Tom,
Sold in 59 as a 60 model?  Also, I believe the 180 only came in the
upgraded sports model called Corsa (1965-67), and wasn't aware of its'
being sold as a Monza.  Carb syncing certainly was an acquired (and
appreciated) skill with the 4 carb setup.  

These recollections are a bit fuzzy as I only started following these
after they'd ceased production.  Had plans for dumping one in a Karmann
Ghia or putting a V8 in the back seat of a post 65 model.

I failed to mention something you pointed out.  Unlike the 356 Porsche
with swing axles, the Corvair had a full IRS setup.
