Tarted-Up First Gen Turbo Corvair Spyder
No accounting for taste here. These excellent turbo 2.3 litre flat air-cooled sixes have 150 hp, and 210 lb ft. and work well in VW dune buggies, and possibly for light airplanes?

See link at right, Custom Car Crafters has generously allowed me full access to take pictures of the very many wonderful cars there. It’s one of my favorite stops. Thanks, guys.
This second generation Corvair, beginning is 1964 was a pretty good car, and pretty, too. Had a rear-mounted, flat, air-cooled six, with a 180 hp turbo version available.
