About Corvette C3

The Corvette C3 was produced from 1968 to 1982 and had several iterations throughout its lifespan. Here are some of the notable ones:

1968-1969: The early C3 models featured a distinctive "shark" body design with a long, pointed front end and a swooping rear end. The interior was completely redesigned for more space and comfort.
1970-1972: The C3 received a significant facelift, with a more aerodynamic front end, pop-up headlights, and a more aggressive stance. This was also the first year of the LT-1 engine, a high-performance small-block V8.
1973-1977: This era of the C3 featured a less aggressive front end design, with a chrome bumper that extended across the entire front of the car. These years also saw the introduction of the C3's first targa top, which allowed for open-air driving without the need for a full convertible.
1978-1982: The final years of the C3 saw further refinement of the exterior design, with a more angular front end and a full-width rear spoiler. These years also saw the introduction of the Collector Edition, which featured a special silver and black paint scheme, as well as unique interior and exterior features.
Overall, the Corvette C3 was a popular and influential sports car that set the standard for American muscle cars of the era.
