Spring is on the horizon and we have some great events coming up.  We will have a Rampside on the lift at the April Meeting.  There is information about the Spring Cruise on May 17th on the Events page, complete with links to the places we are cruising to.  Check out Chris' 63 700 Sedan on the Photos page.  Please send your high quality digital photos to the webmaster for the Club Calendar project, we really need your help to make this project work!  A link to the Corvair Technical Index has been added on the links page.  In addition to links for two high ZDDP oils on the Tech Tips page.  If you have something you would like to see on these pages, a tech tip, an item for sale, a part you are searching for, just let me know.  We are still looking to compile a complete roster of members and cars for this site, so that members whom may not be able to attend regular meetings know which cars are represented in the club and who owns them.  If your car or e-mail address is not listed, and you would like it to be, please send them to the webmaster.  We are looking into alternative meeting locations so send your suggestions in!  I have tried to make every clickable link red and underlined, so if it is red and underlined, click on it!  If you plan on coming on the cruise let us know so we can coordinate parking and meeting locations, our success depends on your participation.  Lets get out there and drive!
