Convertible! Automotive History: Corvette's designers and engineers
- Ed Cole, Zora Arkus-Duntov, Bill Mitchell, and others - knew that
after 10 years of the first generation Corvette it was time to move
on. By decade's end, the machinery would be put into motion to
fashion a fitting successor to debut for the 1963 model year. After
years of tinkering with the basic package, Bill Mitchell and his
crew would finally break the mold of Harley Earl's original design
once and for all. Known as the Sting Ray it is the second
generation of the Chevrolet Corvette sports car, produced by the
Chevrolet division of General Motors for the 1963 to 1967 model
years. The 1967 Corvette Sting Ray was the last Corvette of the
second generation, and is arguably the most desired by collectors.
Boasting slight differences from previous years. Although it was
meant to be a redesign year, its intended successor the C3 was
found to have some undesirable aerodynamic traits. Duntov demanded
more time in the wind tunnel to devise fixes before the next
generation Corvette went into production.
