What is NJACE ?
NJACE is one of the many regional chapters of the
Corvair Society of America (CORSA),
a non-profit organization that was incorporated to satisfy the common needs of individuals interested in the preservation, restoration, and operation of the
Chevrolet Corvair.
NJACE caters to Corvair people who live between the Hudson River and the
Delaware River in the northern half of New Jersey. But our members reside all
across the country, from New York State to Florida to California. This is a very
special car club!
What's a Corvair ?
During the 1950s, Chevrolet's Vice President of
Engineering, Ed Cole, dreamed that America could mass produce a series of small
economical cars and trucks brimming with great features, like coolant-free
engines, four wheel independent suspension, unit body construction, plenty of
passenger space, balanced braking, light steering, low center of gravity and
more.
Rear-engine design was the key to
the concept. Against all odds, Ed Cole gained approval for his dream car,
and the Chevrolet Corvair was born. General Motors produced 1.8 million
Corvair cars and trucks world-wide from October 1959 to May 1969.
