any place sell Rhodesian camo? real or reprint....

My first new car out of university was a '64 Spyder coupe with the LSD. Had the John Fitch quick steering arms and short shift. Also put Pirelli radials on. Radials being quite new at that time in Canada and the US. I think mine was made at the Canadian plant? Rallied and slalomed it. Great fun. Two years later, traded it in for a Mk 1 Lotus Cortina which I still have. Memories of the Syder still make me smile. Was also beautiful in that metallic maroon with black interior.

The Corvair was a very beautiful car. I liked that the rear section was a tad bit longer than the front. That and the no grille look was super slick!

At the end of the day, let's just be frank- it was a big gamble to produce a rear-engine car. The 1965 Corvair was a beautiful car, but if Chevrolet had done the same stying on the Nova, they would have had a huge hit.

Very interesting video. I would however, quibble with the dealership's offer of "condiments" to prospective Corvair buyers. "Sir, may I offer you some ketchup?"

The conflict in a nutshell: British settlers developed Rhodesia and brought it to Western standard. Left-wing extremist traitors to the West destroyed the settler state and handed the country to corrupt terrorists to rule. These terrorists turned it into a shithole country in record time.

Nice Gorka Bars, AKs and Skyrim music, this videos definitely have their aesthetics. Just do what you do, Stalker.

The horsepower increase in 1965 Spyder came about from an engine displacement increase from 2.4 to 2.7 liters along with turbo tweaks.

It’s fun that Streal makes the markings on the device in Russian, but the manual is in Ukrainian.

This is a dream.

I have 104fr and 107ft, I wish I could find 106fr as well. Note, highly doubt that Russians get there hands on Ukrainian Strela, as it gained popularity only after 2014. Regarding to handguard, Anastasia is right, you shouldn’t file the handguard, I would rather work on the hammering technique 😂. Bulgarian rifles are the only rifles that made to the exact late Soviet specs, so Zenitco fits there the same way in Russian. The trick is to hammer it using players. B33 is getting hammered too. P.S. I am looking at prices list you added in 2024 and it makes me cry.

Cool video.

I need Corvair

Y’all DO KNOW who was funding Ralph Nader RIGHT ? Nobody with functioning brain cells ever believed anything that came out of Ralph Nader’s mouth once you realize who was funding him

It was a great car with some bad press

This was excellent. I mean better than network TV excellent.

The E German bakes in my sar 3 are basically perfectly functional 25 round mags. Mine run great as long as i don't load more than 25.

Fundamentally, if anti communism requires us to shred the Bible and the Constitution-and it does-then we should be proud to be satanic and illiberal. God is dead. Paine was wrong. Only strength matters.

The misreporting was most definitely due to the ideology of the media.

Fkin based.

There are many stories of Nader was paid by ford to destroy the corvair as they could not compete with it

I restored a 1962 Corvair 700 coupe for my wife and she loves the little car! Since I drive Corvettes , she refers to it as Corvette’s little sister ! lol. 🇺🇸💙👍🙋‍♂️🖖🏻😊

Love my 64 convertible

What’s your ear pro?? I need it

Former Corvair owner. Just wanted to say that the Nation isn't a 'far left' publication. It's a long respected mag on the left, but well within the political mainstream.

Turn of the century hunting asthetic is a whole vine brother. One that is my jam 🤘 and with the music and everything… 👏👏 perfect. But when u mentioned the AK? I realized ur redneck oxide!! 🎉

Good to have the truth out on Ralph Nader! Thanks!

Glory and honor to free Zimbabwe!!!

Zimbabwe belongs to Black Zimbabweans,not to White Anglosaxons!!!

This guy pisses me off bakelite is an english word u tryna be so extra

pretty sick

Fantastic video! Although the coupe wasn’t necessarily a Monza when it came out in January ‘60, Monza was a performance package (correct me if I’m wrong) 😊

Would love to have one of the Corvairs/Monzas from 1965 or after, particularly a convertible. It's a shame that Nader cast a pall over the Corvair and that GM management failed to take advantage of positive revjews of the car (particularly of Corvairs making it through the Darien Gap) and essentially washing their hands on the car by the mid-60s.

I use 3d printed ones and results are simmilar to yours. They maybe work up to 25 rounds. 30 rounds will almost always have failure to feed. And in my experience plum work a little better than bakelite. I use them just as 20 round decorative mags for range use only. Bakelite looks so much better than plain beryl mag in my jack.

Best reproduction and affordable proper for wear that actually comes from Zim is Cortney boot company. They do make many boots not on there sight just ask and they will make. I got my old style shoes in the very rare waffle soal from them. I don’t know if she will make double buckles, but I still have mine and don’t wear them any more. And my Villies are not periods appropriate since they have a new modern tag on them but except for the price tag of that tag same same. Look them up. I say “she” because my contact is a woman. I hated the leather double buckle boots to no end. I also hated the ‘Nike” canvas style boots. Boy I was hard to satisfy for being poor. Easy way to decide if you like my style is look up Rigby and Sons rifles and find there “Jungle Jim’s” boots. She will make them MUCH less expensive because you won’t get the blue tag…same boot just no tag

Good new, these followers have come down in price. They are down to $16. So far I've have no malfunctions thru BAKELITES or plum mags yet.

The rear engine design of the Corvair caused a serious weight imbalance because the engine was too rearward of the back wheels. A possible solution would have been to move the engine forward several inches closer to the backseat... with the secondary luggage space moved from behind the rear seat to behind the rear bumper. A better solution would have been a front wheel drive transverse water cooled four cylinder engine sourced from Opel.

You’re gonna have to learn how to handload if you want to keep that Model 81 fed.

From an Aussie. Thank you for the time, effort and inspiration in producing this video. I found the history fascinating, very fascinating. Thank you. My first car was a rear engined aircooled 1.1 liter Beetle and I have been a fan of the concept ever since. Engien in the rear, aricooled and simply and fast removal and installation of the engine. I have been in manufacturing for 40 years and of that, 10 years as a heavy vehicle component manufacturer dealing exclusively with Defense in that time. With my experience with old air cooled VWs and aircooled Porsche 911s and my engineering experience, and marketing, I am convinced that there is room for a rear engined aircooled car in the market place even today, Imagine a rear engined flat six air cooled engine behind a modern VW seven speed auto/manual. I own a VW transporter T5 with this auto and I keep thinking about a Corvair engine, coupled with this VW auto. and rear engined. Gotta be possible, I have just bought a Corvair 140hp motor not working with the intention of reconditioning the engine. My first ever Corvair purchase (other than books going back to the 1970s such as How to Hotrod your Corvair Engine. I am picturing, hydraulic valve lifters, fuel injection, engine computer management system. tweeking the compression ration, perhaps a 911 aircooling shroud, or VW Tyoe 4 air cooling system. It is in my imagination at the moment but that is where dreams begin and may materialise into reality in time. BTW. several years ago I was driving in Melbourne Australia and saw a second generation Corvair in front of me, I had to laugh out loud when I saw the number plate - RNADER,

@ call me camo There are additional mods done ar the front feedlips and at the rear on the bakelite magazines, converted by both Century and Robinson Armament. My vepr.223 came from the factory (RA) with a modified 5.45 mag converted by RA. It runs flawless. My suggestion would be to find a Century modified magazine and drop your POD follower in there and it will run without any problems.

Well, I like the Corvair, and I would have liked a factual history of the car. However, I was disappointed by the incendiary partisan rhetoric adopted by the Trump-crazed author of this script. Listening to the narrator go through the winey poor put upon corporation garbage is tiresome. I am sure he would be perfectly happy to worship the visage of wealth and power. Having the government regulate products protects consumers. If you think auto companies are as pure as the driven snow, I refer you to the Ford Pinto debacle, in which money took a backseat to human life. Perhaps the Overton window has drifted so far to the right that anything to the left of Adolph Hitler is now considered to be the work of a bomb-throwing commie. This is cuckoo for cocoa puffs.

The game is definitely S.T.A.L.K.E.R Great vid btw

4:00 hey man, I love your videos, they're very cozy. I'd watch whatever you feel like posting. I liked your Corvair video even tho I'm not really a car guy.

baklava mags?

An amazing story,but also a sad one-although I have read a lot about the. Corvair and Ralph Nader,I didn't realize how much nasty politics were involved and how such an innovative car,for all it's faults,could be tarnished by such muckrakers -a genuine "What if!"

Just FYI, do NOT file Bakelite magazines they are made with asbestos and that shit will kill you.

Ford played dirty against chevy and that wasn't the first time I'm sure. The corvair would have probably sold record numbers comparable to Volkswagen and Ford didn't want that.

Cool

Those cars road smooth

There is something special about the John Edmond trooper songs.
