UNDERCARRIAGE
: Super solid and intactWikipedia Information"The Chevrolet
Corvette, known colloquially as the Vette or Chevy Corvette, is a
sports car manufactured by Chevrolet. The car has been produced
through seven generations. The first model, a convertible, was
introduced at the GM Motorama in 1953 as a concept show car. Myron
Scott is credited for naming the car after the type of small,
maneuverable warship called a corvette. Originally built in Flint,
Michigan and St. Louis, Missouri, since 1981, the Corvette has been
manufactured in Bowling Green, Kentucky and is the official sports
car of the Commonwealth of Kentucky. While always being an
automobile known for speed and performance throughout its history,
the Corvette has evolved throughout the generations into becoming
the widely regarded, although never officially declared, flagship
model of the Chevrolet car brand.""The first generation of Corvette
was introduced late in the 1953 model year. Originally designed as
a show car for the 1953 Motorama display at the New York Auto Show,
it generated enough interest to induce GM to make a production
version to sell to the public. First production was on June 30,
1953.""A new body was introduced for the 1956 model featuring a new
"face" and side coves; the taillamp fins were also gone. An
optional "Ramjet" fuel injection system was made available in the
middle of the 1957 model year. It was one of the first
mass-produced engines in history to reach 1
bhp (0.75
kW) per cubic inch (16.4 cubic cm) and Chevrolet's advertising
agency used a "one hp per cubic inch" slogan for advertising the
283
