Hope you're ready to let the hate for Duke course through your veins 
Moving from Arizona to North Carolina!

Duke? I thought the hate was reserved for NC State! Does this mean I have to hate both schools? That's a lot of hate. I will start storing it up.

I think UNC and Duke fans see NCST as insignificant.
As a Maryland fan I'm programmed to hate all three with the fire of a thousand suns, though.

Welcome to NC, plenty of Jeep fans here. When you get the chance check out NC4X4.com, it's the local resource.

Dayum....
I was just glancing thru after the first page....
See, I am not the only Scrambler/'vair guy on here.
And Only 27K Scramblers were built, well there were only 27K Corvair Wagons built and I have one of those too!
Joe- You gotta plan on coming to the Corvair events in NC, GA and TN. Lots of 'vairs over here! And our weather is way better to put the top down for than 10 months of 90+ temps in AZ!

Someday my Scrambler will be as nice as my Corvair. You can see before and after pictures do my Corvair on my website here
This past weekend, Hemmings muscle machines magazine came out and took pictures of my Spyder for a restoration article they are doing on my car. Since there are a few Corvair guys here (I must admit to being somewhat shocked... I thought I was the only Corvair owner on this forum), I will post the article when it comes out.
A little more on topic, I put the half hardtop and full doors back on the Scrambler, getting ready for the sweltering Pembroke NC summer. I am certainly glad I have A/C in the scrambler... I can take the dry heat in Arizona, but humidity and heat adds a whole new dimension.

Corvairs take over www.cj-8.com! 
Joe,
Are you a member of Corsa? Are you on Virtual Vairs?
Here are pics of my 2 'vairs!
The wire wheels are gone on the Lakewood and I have trim rings and dogdish caps.
The 'vert is not for sale. That is the pic I took when I found it back in 2008!

I was recently working on a Corvair with a hot 327 in the back seat...
Here's a little write up on it...
http://blog.hemmings.com/index.php/2011/02/14/hemmings-find-of-the-day-mid-engine-corvair/
He also has a cobalt blue 'vert with Lambo doors, and another coupe with a front engine 3.8 ford.

I was a member of Corsa, and was on VV, but I've let my membership lapse due to a lack of time.
One day I will have a Lakewood! My first car was a 1959 Rambler cross country station wagon and I would LOVE to combine my corvair interests with my station wagon interests in a single vehicle: the Lakewood.
The 63 convertible looks nice. I'm hoping to be able to drop the top in NC more frequently than I could in Arizona. From about late May through September-ish, it was too bloody hot here in AZ for me to put the top down and drive around on black (yes... BLACK) vinyl seats. Although, now that I think about it, eight months of nice driving weather in Arizona may be hard to beat, even near the coast in NC.
Are those wire wheels shown on the Lakewood real knock-off wire wheels or just caps? I have the real KH knock-off wire wheels on my Spyder and they were REALLY expensive to restore (as in about $5k-ish). I'm so glad the the Scrambler is a bit less expensive to restore :-)

They were '64 13" wires hubcaps that came when I bought it. I actually donated them to the door prizes/ raffle for the ChooChoo Classic we had in Chattanooga last year. They weren't perfect, but the guy that won them was glad to get them.
If you are on FB, friend me and you can see the pics I have from the event last year. It will be Aug 15-16 this year with a trip to the Coker Tire Museum and the Int'l Towing and Recovery Museum here in town. Fun times!
