 Photo Credits: Charlotte Today The 1960s were a time of great change in the world, and the Chevrolet Corvette was no exception. The 1963 Corvette received the long-awaited major update. The new design, known as the “Sting Ray”, was even more aggressive than the previous model, with an optional split rear window coupe body style; the first hardtop coupe Corvette. The car also featured a new independent rear suspension system, which improved handling and stability. Over the next few years, the Corvette continued to evolve. For 1965, the Corvette received…

The year was 1957 The year was 1957. Some of us were still a glimmer in our parent’s eye and the others of us weren’t old enough to drive yet, but we couldn’t wait to get behind the wheel of our own car.
