The recent 1964 Corvair convertible should be a great top down car when it is back on the road - with no air conditioning, that leaves out May, through Oct for those of over 40 in this area.
I posted this for those members that are not hard core “car” people (Jayson the recent Corvair owner isn’t but if he follows through with this, will be). It should be a positive learning experience for everyone interested.
Jayson asked me if I knew of any place to get parts for it. Locally - no, nothing outside of basic fluids. There are several Corvair specific parts houses online (formerly known as “mail order” to us older folks). One can restore this model to new condition, or repair it to the point of making it safe and reliable for use daily use.
Here are three parts places to start with.

There is a very strong local corvair club in North Texas as well - and a great resource as well.
