Corvette was distinctive the moment it first appeared back in 1953. Performance boosts came quickly, and the sports car America loves best was off and rolling. First-generation 'Vettes, the fabulous Sting Ray, the "Shark," the all-new C4, the ZR1, ZO6, Z51 - these and many others are featured in this book. Plus: rare styling studies, clays, concept cars, competition Corvettes, and more.
