    Yeah not sure if it's an actual Corvair or just the body on something else.....kinda odd it would have scoops on the hood if it's original.

    Hopefully Steve can get us some details.

    If there's an engine in the front, it'll need more than those two, tiny scoops to stay cool. I'd say they were just for looks.....

    Yeah who knows they might even be factory, Chevy was probably getting desperate to sell them.

    Actually we may not be that far away from a time when electric conversions are a common thing.

    How would an engine that size be cooled? There's no radiator grill if there's a motor in the front.

    There is a book written about this subject - https://www.roncraigbooks.com/novellas

    Remember the hood scoops - cold air intake
