Ralph Nader would be really interested in this week's West of Tulsa Show. We talk about everything Corvair. Vince Petrie and Greg Vargas from the Corsa Club of America join us in studio to talk about Nader's book "Unsafe at Any Speed" and its lasting impacts on one of the most controversial automobiles of all time. They also discuss how the Chevrolet Corvair is the perfect entry car for young enthusiasts and how it's gaining in popularity. They may have turned Gabe into a convert. We hope you enjoy this episode and please like, follow and subscribe.
