Uncover what makes each special-edition Corvette unique and collectible with the first-ever compilation on the subject.
Special-edition Corvettes are the tip of the spear when it comes to the American auto manufacturers' special models. Luminous cars, such as the 1967 L88 convertible, 1969 aluminum block ZL1, and 2015 Z06 #001, have all commanded a million dollars or more. Modern dealer-tuned cars from Lingenfelter, Callaway, and Hennessey have carried the tradition of making a great Corvette even better. Extremely low mileage on 1978 Pace Cars indicate that owners have thought of these cars as investments for nearly 40 years.
Keith Cornett of Corvetteblogger.com compiles a murderer’s row of special-edition Corvettes. This book is an encyclopedia of information as you will learn about some of the rarest Corvettes on the planet. It will serve as a guide if you're looking to add one of these special machines to your collection.
When the first Corvette was introduced to the public through the traveling caravan known as Motorama, everyone knew there was something special about it. Each subsequent model continued to strengthen that position. But how do you upgrade America's favorite sports car? Make it a special edition! Everything you’ve ever wanted to learn about collectible Corvettes is in Corvette Special Editions.rn
Founded in 1993 CarTech, Inc has become one of the leading publishers of how-to automotive titles for the hardcore enthusiast.

This single title gained wide recognition as “the bible” of high performance engine design and assembly.
CarTech has continued to expand on this tradition and now has over 300 titles available for the enthusiast, in a wide variety of formats – from print to digital to video. Today, our publishing efforts include our traditional performance “S-A Design” titles along with race histories, biographies of industry icons; in addition to a number series that further assist readers with their projects.
