Chevrolet Corvair

The Chevrolet Corvair is a small car made by Chevrolet that was sold in the 1960s. It was different from most cars because the engine was in the back, which made it handle differently on the road. People talk about the Corvair because it had some safety issues that made it famous, both good and bad.

But one night, the Corvair story there,

one funny Corvair story, after church,

all of us teenagers went out there.

I was only 15 at the time,

but I was already driving at Corvair.

So this was before he actually gave it to me

for my regular driver.

And I said, I got in the car and there were

seven other teenagers piled in there with me

for some strange reason.

I don't know why this happened,

but we were packed in there so tight

that I was having to operate the gear shifter

and the gas.

And the guy that was sitting between me and the door

was having to do the clutch and the brake.

That's what I was gonna say.

You must have shared responsibilities there.

We did.
