Description

We couldn't think of a better time than the 50th anniversary in 2003 to unvell our tribute to the enduring American icon and premier sports car, the Chevy Corvette, and all it represents. This Old Corvette is an anthology of excellent stories, artwork, and photography on this classic sports car. Stories by well-known historians and Corvette and automotive figures (such as Mike Antonick, Noland Adams, Peter Egan, Zora Arkus-Duntov, Allan Girdler, Lucinda Lewis, and Martin Milner) provide a broad overview of this groundbreaking automobile that's so much more than a mode of transportation. The collection of stories conveys the breadth of the history of the car, as well as its prominence in pop culture and how it influenced the dreams of generations of Americans. The stories flow seamlessly with the artwork (from such artists as Kent Bash and Dave Barnhouse), which includes stylish period ads and brochures, race posters, funky old car magazine covers, and classic Corvette movie, TV, and music memorabilia. We've also included a Corvette timeline.
