1968 Corvette Information
The 15 year run for the C3 “Shark” generation of the Corvette that stands today is the first model, the 1968 Corvette. The most stubborn of all the Corvette generations is the C3 that ran until 1982. There was selling records in the late 1960’s, large numbers in the 1970’s despite gas shortages and holding until the early 1980’s. The 1968 Corvette started this prolonged existence which brought a new design that would encourage Corvettes that are driven today with the C6 generation of 2005 to present.
Why A Corvette Forum Matters
I received in the mail a free AOL disc and I first went “online” with it back in 1990. The AOL phase lasted about 5 years and in 1995 a friend said to me, “You don’t need AOL to surf the net.” I was honestly surprised back then; I was ignorant to the whole internet thing. A few days later I started to cruise the info superhighway and didn’t look back to AOL. Also, at that time PC’s had not been interesting to many people, however they did rush to stores with computers so they could get on the internet and receive their email.
The 1984 Corvette
The new C4 generation of Corvettes was the 1984 Corvette. For the first time in 15 years General Motors totally redesigned the Corvette. The mission statement “form follows function” by chief engineers and designers Jerry Palmer and David R. McClellan. Even though, this statement was followed in the past, the new generation had to prove to be worth the wait.
The 1967 Corvette Is Considered The Best Vette Ever By Many
The last of a five year run for the C2 generation was the 1967 Corvette. Originally, the 1967 corvette was to be a total redesign but top engineers at General Motors wanted more wind tunnel time and therefore the 1967 Corvette became another carry over Sting Ray. The 1967 Corvette was not a disappointment and it would prove to be the best Sting Ray made so the now famed C3 generation would have to wait one more year before it began.
1965 Corvette Information
Chevrolet unleashed the 1965 Corvette Sting Ra with marked improvements all around and it was the third go around of the C2 generation of the Corvette. Modest changes to the outside and even less noticeable improvements to the interior of this supercar, but it was what was under the hood that made the difference.
1964 Corvette Information
The C2 1963 Corvette gives tribute to the success of the 1964 Corvette. The first of any series will be highly scrutinized and will take a lot of abuse from the critics. It was hard for this particular year, yet, it is welcomed news for the next model year as all the feedback can be taken in and rolled out with a new model that is better for the wants and needs of the masses. Such was the case with the 1964 Corvette.
The 1971 Corvette Saw Small Changes, But Huge Improvements In Sales
The 1971 Corvette would establish to be much what the 70s brought in the way of Vettes. The increasing federal regulations on fuel economy and emissions control caused the machine to be more balanced then the previous year’s model. The model would also demonstrate to be a bit tamer. Regrettably for the engineers at GM this would become routine for several years to come.
The 1970 Corvette Received More Time To Develop, But Failed To Impress
Thanks to a Strike, the 1970 Corvette was delayed Which Ultimately Proved Costly.
