1964 Corvette??

June 11th 2008 10:21
'64 Corvette or not?

How well I remember my 1964 Corvair---or was it a Corvette? I always had problems with those names which were so much alike, and of course, made by the same company.

My Corv.... was light brown in color and looked so much like that car pictured above. I drove that thing everywhere. It was a used car when I bought it but as nice as any new car. Gas mileage was good enough. There was no rust when I bought it. It drove so easily and with the small size, it was a cinch to park.


When I finally retired the car because it became harder to keep up when it got old, I parked in behind our garage. After a while, a neighbor wanted to buy it and offered a really great price. He wanted to use it for parts for another Corv.... that he had. I hated to sell it. Still, it was doing nobody any good parked behind the garage.

Whenever I say that I owned a 1964 Corvette, people wonder how a poor boy could afford such a car. They then show me pictures such as the one below. That is not the kind of car I had at all. Cars can be so confusing.

'64 Corvette
Not the same as mine.
