The first one I saw was on my buddys '61 Impala with a 283 & 3 speed trans. This was on Long Island but like today It may have had California emissions.
It was common in the early '60's to yank these valves off and put the older pre '61 breather pipes on our 61-64 Chevy V/8's.
Made them faster you know-lol.

What significant MECHANICAL difference distinguishes the '65-'69 Corvairs from the '60-'64s?

f5journal · 01-17-2012, 08:17 AM

Complete guess....the Nadar front end attachment means?? The deal where the suspension rusted off on the earlier ones?

They had a fully independent suspension, similar in design to the Corvette, replaced the original swing axle rear suspension in the '60 -'64 models.

Hey Becky, you know that-there TRUNK LID? Well, it seems as though the good folks @ Chev-OH-let connected the Radio to the metal inner structure of the trunk and used the W-H-O-L-E thing as an antenna...which meant, on a clear night, you could cruise Woodward...and listen to the Wolfman 'way out in Cali-forni-eh...

Sorry this took soooo long...I was sellin' sumthin'...

You? Makin' any moo-law?
