I agree!!
Thanks for sharing that article, it’s amazing how we can always learn something new about these cars.
Also interesting was the reference to a potential rear or mid engined car, and how it was viewed back then!!

“The tightness around the hips, elbows and shoulders is caused by the width of the transmission tunnel. A rear-engined (or mid-engined) design would eliminate all these objections, and if Chevrolet ever builds one, it will be to improve creature comfort and decrease overall size, not to make the car handle better. But after the Corvair lawsuits, we don't think GM will ever go this route.”
