 The history of Corvette has many ties to the military, from Ed Cole's friend General Ed Curry who passed along the enthusiasm servicemen had when seeing European sports cars, to the name itself.
Within the Nostalgia area of the Museum we have added new panels featuring enthusiast-submitted images that are military in theme - whether the car's owner was or is in the military, to Corvettes at special military sites. Get an up close look at these panels online here, and be sure to check out some of the images and stories on your next visit!
Thanks to everyone who submitted an image! |
