1961 Chevrolet Corvair
 

First introduced as an economy car, the compact Corvair was gaining sales as an affordable, practical sports car as the sportier bucket seat Monza made its debut. Quick to see a trend, Chevrolet introduced the Sebring Spider Coupe in 1961 to further enhance the sportier, trendy image.
