Legendary Corvettes

Chevrolet has never built an ordinary Corvette. Even the most mundane coupe draws a crowd everywhere it goes. But through victory at racetracks, exposure in film and television, or other notable achievements, a select few Corvettes have attained mythic status. Twenty of the most legendary Corvettes of all time—from the first Corvette ever built for the 1953 model year to the late first generation Corvettes used in the classic television series Route 66 to the five Grand Sport racers built by Zora Arkus Duntov, the Godfather of the Corvette, to the fifth generation Corvette raced by the father and son team of Dale Earnhardt and Dale Earnhardt Jr. just before the elder Earnhardt’s tragic death—are featured in this book.
