The Corvette Sting Ray needs no introduction, it is without doubt a car which symbolised America in the 1960s and has always enjoyed a cult following. The Corvette has been described as one of the most desirable cars ever built, and has been applauded for its great style and engineering.
The Sting Ray was first introduced in 1963 and was a show stopper from day one. There have only been a handful of cars which have been able to create real excitement amongst the car industry during the 1960s - the Stingray was undoubtedly one of them.
The specification for the Corvette was a totally new venture, primarily because GM was working with a completely new chassis frame.
