Toys for tots of all ages

Morning Journal/Patti Schaeffer

This is a rare 1961 Corvair truck, owned by Paul Campbell of Darlington, Pa. Only 20,000 of these models were made, Campbell said. Campbell was once told a story about why the unusual side gate was added. Legend has it that a bar owner who was friends with one of the Detroit auto workers complained that he had to lift his kegs, especially with the engine in the back. Thus, they changed it to provide a lower side gate. Campbell doubts the story is true.
