Anyone see the Nov issue of Hot Rod Magazine? Their "Wrenchin@Random" article talks about "The Most Technologically Advanced American Car" Thom Taylor says the the Corvair made the most technological jump since WWll with its rear engine, air cooled design and styling that was borrowed by the European manufacturers.
Nice article, talks about a number of firsts in the industry, some history, and at the end mentions the "epic Crown-V8" swaps... too cool!!!
