Corvair Ultra Van

Thanks Mike!

I always found them interesting. It seems likely someone is going to make an effort to restore them. That is a good thing. One hates to see something so unique just sit and rot away.

There used to be an UltraVan parked in a field near Detroit Lakes,MN. We drove in one day and went inside. It was amazing. The woodwork reminded me of an old Airstream. Birch I think. Everything was engineered to be super light. This one was restorable. But that was 20 years ago. It was actually quite large inside. I wonder if there is one in the RV museum near Elkhart??

Off topic but....Moisheh your BB you have for sale at BBBB looks real nice. Good luck with the sale.

Amazing that I always forget that my phone has a camera. But it is still a pita to try to take a pic with it.

Also amazing the things that can be found in the north country! Don't think I've ever seen a real live Ultra Van, just pics.

And Ron, is the General Store still opened in Heuvelton? Neat place.
