Welcome to Corvair Kid's literature collection. Most of the items in the collection
relate to 1964 forward control Corvairs and 1966 Corvairs (including Canadian
and European Corvairs). This bias reflects my primary Corvair vehicle interests.
The collection is in two parts:
Searchable database for original GM-produced items (this page)
Auxiliary listing of non-GM Corvair-related publications (other
page)
Literature Search
When you first visit this page, all items in the database are shown, in
groups of five items. Select
criteria below to narrow your search. (Each criterion further narrows the
search--the terms are joined using Boolean AND.)
As of July 13, 2008,
there are 207 entries in the
database. If you don't find what you're looking for, be sure to check the other
page.
If you want to see a full-sized image of a publication, click on its
thumbnail. Please note that some of the full-sized pictures are quite large and
can take a long time to download. Only the first page is provided due to
copyright and storage space concerns.
