Larry Shinoda's split-window Sting Ray launched the C2 generation and remains the most iconic Corvette ever produced. The 1963-67 convertible shared the coupe's revolutionary independent rear suspension and stunning Coke-bottle proportions but offered open-air motoring that the controversial split-window coupe couldn't match. With the L84 fuel-injected 327 producing 375 horsepower, these Sting Rays could run with the best European sports cars while offering distinctly American style. The side-exit exhausts, hidden headlights, and knife-edge fender lines created a design language that still influences Corvettes today. Convertible values have steadily climbed, with fuel-injected big-block cars leading the charge. The C2 convertible perfectly captures the optimism and innovation of 1960s America—making it essential for serious Corvette collectors.
