I had a 65 Monza convertible when GM finally canned the Corvair. I painted
a picture of Snoopy on his doghouse going down in flames shouting "Curse
you, Ralph Nader". Noticed a lot of people chuckling behind me at lights.

What people do not widely know, is that he printed a retraction, saying
that the problems were fixed, '63 and later. It had to do with the fact
that the rear axles only had one U-joint, at the transaxle. After they
put in two per side, and made the wheels travel straight up and down,
they were fine.

Actually, the rear suspension change was made in 1965. See
