You get to a car show or stop and someone comes up and says.

Is it a Tempest or a Lemans? Why does it have both emblems?

YKYDATW -
You open the trunk at the gas station to check the transmission fluid and a crowd forms to find out where the dip stick came from.. |

You can point out the mistakes in Mona Lisa Vito's expert witness testimony. |

1. When the elder car-part guy refers to it as the "hockey puck on wheels".
2.The whirling noise from the torque tube is normal. 3. Brakes!!! What brakes??!!! 4. Hood and/or grill cost more than the entire parts car. (good thing i guess)

Can non-Tempest owners play?
YKYDATW You can't find Tempest parts so you start looking through Corvair parts catalogs.

You're ready for the reaction you're gonna get from the garage or tire store employee when you tell him that you have to be there to explain a few things before you can let him lift the car. After he unloads a barrage of his most colorful words at you, you let him cool down before you tell him how to unscrew the lug nuts. |

Wait a minute... I take that back, these days, YKYDATW you wouldn't even THINK of taking your car to a garage.

You can tell a early Tempest owner by the scars on his head from hitting the hood catch.

when you carry wheel chocks in your trunk for when you park on an incline, and just don't trust the parking brake and "PARK" option delete on '61-'62. (maybe it's just a San Francisco thing) and even your own parents warn you about taking corners too fast in these cars because of someone they knew had one/had accident/story of incident/etc. ( yeah , think we're a tad younger gen then the rest of you.) No offense, just clariification of last comment.
