Chevrolet Corvette C6

Tom Peters · 2005

The C6 is the sixth generation of the Chevrolet Corvette, built from 2005 to 2013. It was the first Corvette since the 1962 model with exposed headlamps, and it brought a larger passenger compartment and a 6.0 L LS2 V8 rated at 400 hp, followed from 2008 by the 6.2 L LS3. Z06, ZR1, Grand Sport and 427 Convertible versions were also built.

Chevrolet Bel Air

Harley Earl team · 1955

The 1955 Chevrolet Bel Air is a full-size car. It began as a two-door hardtop designation in 1950. It is named after the Bel Air neighbourhood in Los Angeles. From 1953, it became a premium trim level across body styles. By 1975, it had become a budget fleet sedan in the US. Canadian production continued through 1981. First-year production was 76,662 units.

Chevrolet Camaro (first generation)

Henry Haga · 1967

The first-generation Chevrolet Camaro is a 1967–1969 American pony car built on a new rear-wheel-drive GM F-body platform. It shares that platform with the Pontiac Firebird. Its standard engine is a 230 cu in straight-6 producing 140 hp and 220 lb⋅ft torque, paired to a 3-speed manual. Most units were assembled in Norwood, Ohio and Van Nuys, California — with local assembly also in the Philippines, Belgium, Switzerland, Venezuela, and Peru.

Chevrolet Corvette (C4)

Jerry Palmer · 1984

The C4 redefined the Corvette as a structurally coherent, driver-focused machine—not through power, but through chassis discipline. Its legacy rests on endurance records, not lap times. Its sole 1983 survivor is a museum artifact, not a driver’s car. It is the first Corvette that feels engineered, not assembled.

Chevrolet Corvette (C1)

Harley Earl · 1953

The C1 Corvette is the foundational American sports car: a rushed, hand-built, fibreglass roadster born from Harley Earl’s desire to answer European competition. It established Chevrolet’s two-seat lineage after 15 years’ silence. Its front-engine, rear-wheel-drive layout and solid rear axle reflect its derivation from full-size Chevrolets—not racing pedigree. It prioritises presence over precision. It is historically indispensable but dynamically unrefined.

Chevrolet Corvette (C3)

David Holls · 1968

The C3 is a stylistic pivot built on mechanical continuity. Its shape is decisive. Its engineering is inherited.

Chevrolet Impala

Harley Earl team · 1959

The 1958 Chevrolet Impala is a full-size car, launched as a top-tier Bel Air variant without Bel Air badging, distinguished by symmetrical triple taillights, named after the African antelope, and developed from a 1956 GM Motorama concept car. It rides on GM’s shared 'A' body platform. Harley Earl personally reviewed the foundational styling sketch. Production spanned discontinuous periods: 1958–1985, 1994–1996, and 2000–2020.

Chevrolet Corvette (C2)

Bill Mitchell · 1963

The Chevrolet Corvette (C2) redefined what a mass-market American sports car could be—not through engineering leaps, but through disciplined, wind-tunnel-informed packaging and a bold, structural fastback form.
