Default Re: 1961 Corvette

Frank,

1962 Corvette (#2925 lbs.)

No optional cove 'two-tone paint', the triple accent body molding was
removed and replaced with a black finish, and the grille was changed to
a black finish. A more 'subtle' finish for 1962.

First year for the 327.



327/340 HP............8.60 Wt/Hp
* 1965 = A/S
* 1966 = B/S
* 1967 = A/S
* 1968 = B/S
* 1969 = C/S
* 1970 = D/S
* 1971 = D/S
* 1972 = SS/F

327/300 HP............9.75 Wt/Hp
* 1965 = B/S
* 1966 = C/S
* 1967 = B/S
* 1968 = D/S
* 1969 = E/S
* 1970 = F/S
* 1971 = F/S
* 1972 = SS/H

327/250 HP.............11.70 Wt/Hp
* 1965 = D/S
* 1966 = E/S
* 1967 = D/S
* 1968 = H/S
* 1969 = I/S
* 1970 = J/S
* 1971 = J/S
* 1972 = SS/L

The 1962 Corvette, was not as successful at the Drag Strip as the 1961 Corvette. The 327/250 HP combination was the 'Best-of the-Three'
