    Speaking of camber... whenever I would set up a rally or fun run for the Corvair club here in SWMO, I would always make sure to run the club down "Camber Street" here in Springfield. It was only a bock long and buried in a subdivision, and the neighborhood didn't always get the joy from it that we did.;)

    One of One LOL

    Not only did automotive giant General Motors launch a whole lineup of air-cooled, rear-engined, flat-six-powered cars, vans, and pickup trucks—two of its engineers tried to make an amphibious variant.

    The charmingly batty one-off that actually seems to have had a fighting chance at becoming a production model. Built by Chevrolet engineers Richard E. Hulten and Roger D. Holm, this seafaring Corvair was based on a brand-new Rampside pickup with a 65-horsepower engine and automatic transmission.

    They lengthened the Loadside's rear by two feet, making room for the hydraulic system hung off the rear of the engine that powered the twin propellers and electrically-operated rudders. They sealed off the undercarriage, installed engine and rudder controls in the truck bed, and got to floatin'.
