His first Corvette was a C3 restomod. His second is a 2002 Magnetic Red Metallic C5 with 26,431 miles and not a single modification. Meet Bill, then see what we'd suggest for the day he decides to change that. Click to read the full story.
Ray Leyva's 1968 427 convertible spent twenty-seven years in a storage unit in Stockton, California. Engine, transmission, rear end, wiring, gauges, brakes, steering, interior — he's been through all of it, and the car is about to go down for paint. It's also a first-year C3, which means it wears a badge no other C3 does: none at all.
Number 116 of the 250 Stars & Steel Corvettes built for 2026 spent Dream Cruise Saturday parked on Woodward, in front of a garage that's been there since 1919. Walter Nabozny's Black Z06 hardtop convertible carries its build number on the sill plates and on a plaque in the cabin, and there are only two ways the edition can be specced. Here's the car, the 5.5-liter LT6 behind the seats, and the fall show season it's warming up for.
The plate frame reads DAD'S DREAM, and the paint is Turquoise Metallic — a color Chevrolet offered on the Corvette for two model years and then retired for good. Frank LaVacca's 1990 convertible is one of 589 built in that shade, black top, chrome wheels, luggage rack across the deck. It's also one of the last Corvettes to leave Bowling Green with round taillights, and there's a reason for that.
Gary Archdeacon's 2019 Grand Sport answers to "The Polar Bear" — Arctic White, red graphics, 675 supercharged horsepower, and an actual stuffed bear in the driver's seat at shows. It's his third Corvette, and the two that came before it link straight back to the year the Grand Sport name was born. The full story, plus the trophy count.
