1974 Chevrolet Corvette

In 1974 the Corvette stood at a crossroads. The chrome bumper era was fading and Chevrolet answered with a redesigned rear end that marked the beginning of a new generation of C3 attitude. It was the only year to blend the muscular chrome front bumper with the newly integrated rear design, making it a true one year hybrid that collectors and Corvette purists know well. This coupe captures that transitional swagger and cranks it up several notches. Under the hood sits a 5.7 liter LS1 V8, a modern small block that delivers the kind of crisp throttle response and horsepower the original engineers could only dream about.
