1957 Corvette

The 1957 Corvette is a stunning vehicle. When Chevrolet produced the 1957 Corvette they finally had a Corvette that was worthy of the title, “sports car.” It was introduced in 1956 with a new body and multiple upgrades. In this production year they finally got rid of the v6 and put in a v8 small block motor. It came with a 265 cubic inch motor that made about 210 to 240 horsepower. A few other upgrades include optional fuel injection, power assist convertible top, power assist windows, and an optional hardtop.
