The Complete Book of Corvette

More about the book

This book is the ultimate resource for Corvette enthusiasts and fans of America's premier high-performance vehicle. Since its debut in 1953, Chevrolet's iconic sports car has become a staple of American culture and a globally recognized name. Each model is distinctive, from the late-1950s with its four chrome-ringed headlamps to the sharp-edged 1960s Sting Ray and the signature curved wheel-well moldings of the 1970s, culminating in the aggressive aerodynamics of the C6. While all models are stunning, none rival the advanced technology found in the seventh-generation 2014 Corvette Stingray, which marks the return of the Stingray badge after decades. American automotive expert Mike Mueller provides a comprehensive overview of all Corvette generations, showcasing over 60 years of history. In collaboration with General Motors, the book features 500 color and black-and-white photos from GM's exclusive Design and Media Archives, emphasizing the development, technical specifications, and visual appeal of the entire Corvette lineup. From the original 1953 model to the impressive 2014 Stingray, this volume celebrates one of America's most cherished sports car legacies and the innovative spirit of the company behind it.
