    1. Not sure why this car is up on this support? It is at a repair shop, not a salvage yard.

    1. This is the car Ralph Nader wrote the book, "Unsafe At Any Speed" about. So this Corvair is safe so long at it sits on the pedestal.

    1. No, that was the 1972 Ford Pinto. Ralph Nader said the Chevy Corvair was unstable and unsafe and the company knew it.
