All three shared some recognizable Corvette features, such as the front grille and fascia treatment, but were given certain unique styling elements in order to set them apart. The Corvair and the convertible coupe maintained the same wheel base and overall length as the 1953 Corvette. The Nomad wagon had a longer wheelbase and was approximately two feet greater in overall length. 1954 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible Coupe dream car The Corvette Convertible Coupe was the closest in styling to the production model.

The one with the highest output — the 6.2-liter LT1 V8 that generates 455 horse- power and 455 lb-ft of torque — will make the new Camaro SS the most pow- erful SS to ever come off of Chevy’s Camaro production lines. However, the Camaro, in all its forms, has been offering impressive perfor- mance for nearly 50 years. Shoppers in the 1960s only had 602 chances to drive the 1967 Z/28 home from their local Chevy dealer. The Trans- Am racing homologation special put smiles on faces by putting 290 facto- ry-rated horsepower from a 302-cubic- inch small-block V8 on the streets through a close-ratio four-speed manual gearbox.

  • The World's First Corvette Club
    The World’s First Corvette Club The President’s Corner - Rich Taylor October 2012 I open this month’s newsletter on a very sad note. One of our long time CCA members, Jo Girardi passed away recently. Jo was a very sweet and gracious person and she will be missed by all of us. She and her husband Dan have been active members and were popular within the club. You may express your sympa- thies through a donation to: Best Friends Animal Society, 5001 Angel Canyon Rd., Kanab, Utah 84741. They are on the web at http://www.bestfriends.org. You may sign the funeral home guest book at: http:// www.hinesrinaldifuneralhome.com/obituaries/tribute.html?url=http://stei-23836.tributes.com/show/Jo- Girardi-94528918 Getting back to regular club news, September was a fun month with a couple of great events. The first event was the ALMS race at VIR. As many of you know, several of our members have driven this track at HPDE events, so it was fun to see how the pros drive the same course that we drive on. To make it an even more special event, Corvette Racing won the GT class along with the Team and Manufacturer’s Championships and increased their lead in the Individual and Green X Championships. The viewing was great at several locations on the track. Several of us sat just past the turn at Oak Tree and were right next to the track where we were able to see a lot of action up close. This was a fun event and we hope that VIR is on the ALMS schedule for next year.
