roof CHEVROLET CORVETTE 1995 4.G Owners Manual

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine In 1963, Corvette hit the road with an eye-catching new
look
-- the Sting Ray coupe. An instant success, the
now-classic Sting Ray featured concealed headlamps
and a unique split rear window. The split window would
only be offered in 1963, making this model among the

when standing still. And for the first time, Corvette
offered removable roof panels.
