Went to a meet of my local car club and a Corvair powered Ultravan was there. First time seeing one and i was without my camera so no photos but it was in really nice shape. I remember seeing an article about them recently but was not expecting to actually get to see one in person. Really a nicely equipped camper and hard to believe that engine could power it.

Stever,
They show up at the Corvair Conventions. They were built with Chevy V8 engines after the Corvair era.

Steve, google Ultravan. Very interesting history. Not many made but quite a few left. When Corvair went out of production Olds engines were used. CorvairEd VCCA# 47508 TA#99 Dade City Fla
