Photo Gallery «Chevrolet Corvette Sting Ray 427 Convertible - money, power and muscle»
While Chevrolet had disproved the preconception that American cars could only drive fast in a straight line with the Corvette Sting Ray in 1963, they worked diligently from 1965 onwards to restore it. With the introduction of the big-block models with up to seven liters of displacement and over 400 hp, the Corvette poached in the territory of the Shelby Cobra, but at the expense of maneuverability. This article tells the story of the 396 and 427 Turbo-Jet and describes the driving impressions of a 1966 model with 431 hp.
