C7 (2014–2019)

Steve Pelchat’s 1960 Corvette has been part of his life for over 50 years. Purchased at just 15 years old, this Horizon Blue classic became the backdrop for his high school romance — and remains a cherished piece of his life today.

Craig Vejar’s 2004 Corvette C5 has lived its entire life in Southern California, accumulating 75,000 miles while remaining remarkably well-preserved. His story highlights the reliability, timeless design, and everyday drivability that define the C5 generation.

The National Corvette Museum has opened a new exhibit called “Driven to Preserve,” giving visitors a rare behind-the-scenes look at how Corvette history is protected. From rare cars to archival artifacts, the exhibit highlights the work required to preserve America’s Sports Car for future generations.
