Awesome! I LOVE the Corvair. Many people forget that these were very capable road race cars in the early/mid 1960s before the arrival of the Camaro. Don Yenko made his name building and racing very fast Corvair's.

Interesting to see the big 427 drag race hump on the Galaxie's bonnet.

Interestingly enough, the only other racing Chev Corvair I have seen live is the Frank Gardner/Alan Grice sports sedan car, which is absolutely nothing like the historic version seen here.
I do not know the history of the Ford Galaxy, but the bonnet hump would have had to be an original with the car (a racing, or drag racing version?), otherwise it would not be allowed.
