The 1978 Corvette Summer car from the movie with Mark Hammil

Whether you like it or not, the 1973 corvette from the movie Corvette Summer is a big screen icon. It’s a candy coated Corvette with a humorous hood scoop which looks like a caricature of a stock American Corvette. The boat tail front end with dual quad headlights is minus the front rubber bumper and longer than stock. The rear end also lengthened, spells out “Stingray” in polished aluminum script across a red, gold, and white taillight board made of plexi-glass and resembling a piece of jewelry. Side pipes and flames and wild Superior Industries’ wheels light up the sides. The best way to describe this Corvette is a teenage dream unfettered by the realities and constraints of real life. Although neither the movie nor the car has reached cult status, perhaps their time will come. Want more?
