    Great video! I’m the proud owner of a 1967 Corvette L79 Coupe. And it’s my pride and joy.

    Karpo is a great friend of the museum and one of the organizers of the Corvette events. Without him, none of these Corvettes would have been there and our 60th anniversary celebration of the Corvette wouldn't have been as amazing as it was.

    My father loved Corvettes and sometimes had several in the garage. He's gone now, but would love your display as I'm sure he was well-read on each and every Corvette from the very beginning. A funny thing happened when I turned 16, and earned my driver's license, all of those Corvettes disappeared never to be seen again. That probably saved my life as I totaled three cars in St. Louis, Missouri before graduating from high school. We were all wild in the early 1970's with full access to the best big blocks Detroit could produce. We destroyed so many tires that we usually drove around with a spare set in the trunk ready to change in the field. Nothing beats Detroit, big-block iron for pure fun!

    Csaba knows cars so well (especially these), he leaves little to talk about- except the few questions he spoon-feeds (and apparently already knows).
    That said, my dear friend Bobbie Jo Lee (PR director @ the 'Vette museum in Bowling Green, KY) would've been far more enjoyable to hear interviewed- and about as knowledgable on 'Vette history.
    Plus, she's pleasant to look at, & sings as good as Martina McBride!
    (TH-cam search her- she rocks.)

  • @hayksamvelyan
    @hayksamvelyan 11 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    He literally added nothing to the "interviews". Everything he said was just a confirmation of something that Csaba brought up. Kudos to Csaba for keeping it interesting, even with such a Debby Downer around.

    Corvettes are cool, it's a shame they haven't taken off in the UK. If they made a right hand drive I'd probably snap one up. I think the yank tanks are improving at a rapid pace it would be cool to see them take off throughout Europe.

    They did stop selling them in America (same with the Mini Cooper), but they still produced them in other countries. The "original" classic Beetle was produced up until 2003. If you go to Mexico, you'll see an oddly high number of classic Beetles, but you'll find out that many of them are nearly brand new.

    I believe he was allowing the representatives explain the cars to him and the public and have them sell the product of the Petersen Museum. I'm sure he's very knowledgeable but wanted the museum directors/owners to showcase their own knowledge as part of their own anniversary experience.

    @SquillyMon 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    Wait a minute, isn't there one model missing between the very first Corvette and the 63' Split Window? The 59'-62' versions? I may be confused...Anyone? I guess I am thinking the very last year of the first gen was so different to how the first Fireball 6cyl model actually began that it deserved a gen all to itself? I'd be wrong I suppose.

  • @gene978
    @gene978 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    The VW Beetle is older. But they STOPPED selling them in the States due to regulations in Safety. And for 20 years America didn't see any NEW Beetles at the dealerships. Until the NEW Beetle in 1999.

  • @LibertyOrDeath-ms5rf
    @LibertyOrDeath-ms5rf 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    How could you not mention the most rare Corvette ever made? It's possible if sold at auction today, could also be the most valuable. The ZL1 from 1969. Aluminum block L88 that produced 540-580hp. There were only 2 complete cars ever made. It wasn't until 2006 with the ZO6 that that much power was seen in a Corvette.

  • @johndough181
    @johndough181 10 ปีที่แล้ว +13

    Wrong! There were NO '83 models! No continuous production there.

    • @zeldamenefee5008
      @zeldamenefee5008 8 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      There were 43 test/proto corvettes built in 83 and at the middle to end of 83 the C4 started production but they were all sold as 84 models but there are no production model 83's

    • @Driving-the-Backroads
      @Driving-the-Backroads 6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      One 1983 C4 survives and is on display at the National Corvette Museum VIN 1G1AY0783D5110023

    • @joevenuti1201
      @joevenuti1201 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      If the factory continuously produced cars, there IS no gap. However, I would agree with you if there was a pause in production when they stopped building cars in St. Louis and started building cars in Bowling Green. But I suspect there was overlap...

    • @aricsnyder5882
      @aricsnyder5882 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      John Dough you are wrong. You just couldn't buy one. they did have 43 yes 43 for 83 they were the C4 platform but were never sold to the public. So technically they were 43 Corvettes produced for 83 .Thats also why there's no 30th anniversary vette

    • @ncm-jl3nu

  • @CONTENDER791
    @CONTENDER791 5 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Factory Corvette's never were produced with 6 tail lights. 96 was the last year of the C4 not 97 or 98 like he said !! 1990 was the first year for the "King of the Hill " ZR1 Corvette not 88. Next time get a couple guys that know Corvettes

    5:29 "Do you think the high finn served any purpose on the car" Let me answer that question Gentlemen since you obviously don't know that it served a very important purpose. The High Finn was adopted almost unchanged from Jaguars D-type from '55. It was added to secure high speed stability on the race tracks, and as a passive security for the driver in case of a roll over accident.

      Well you say that but the C2 was a big step for the future Gens. If the the C1 never existed we would not have the Corvette today. So with the C3, all it was is a stepping stone not a mile stone. Causing your theory of the C3 Corvette being the "first Real corvette" invalid and untrue. If your first look at a Corvette was a C3 and that just stayed with you than that is you favorite Corvette but doesn't mean it is the best Corvette or the "first Real corvette."
