What is odd about the part numbers for early Corvair models, and why?

I have a Corvair parts catalog, the parts numbers are either 6 or 7 digits.

Nothing unique, as far as I can tell, except that they seem to follow the general Chevy tupe numbering for that era.

Here is a great source for Corvair information:

Do you see any differences between the part numbers for the early Corvairs when compared to the later Corvairs? Look at the leading digits ...

first gen C _____ second gen CX _____ ? Is that it? :huh:

Not really!


Are you talking about the 37 and 38 prefixes?

To Sixty8panther, GM only uses numeric parts numbers, as low as 5 digits to a maximum of 8 digits.

Did you find any parts for the '60 Corvair that have part numbers that begin with the sequence 625 ...
