Actually, there isn't much opinion involved about whether a car has a "Stingray" badge or not.
My '58 doesn't say Stingray on it, so I'm pretty sure it's not.
I'm going to guess most people arguing that a car is something that it is not, are owners of those cars.
Maybe not, but there does seem to be opinion on weather it needs a badge to be considered a stingray. alot of people are saying that the whole c3 series is "stingray" regardless of the badge.
I understand how everyone feels but, are you going to enjoy your car any more or less whatever it's called. Just enjoy it and remember, there is a large percentage of people that would enjoy it no matter.
Now I like that one, all Stingrays er Sting Rays should have this one on them, hell maybe non of them are Stingrays as I think mine would sink like a rock in water!
When I repaint my 79 its getting a stingray badge in place of the crossed flags.
This actually brings a question I'd like to direct to those of you that feel the Stingray emblem makes a corvette a Stingray and makes the rest some how a lesser model.
Here's your question.
Just what the hell model does the flagged emblem make those corvettes ?
Think long and hard because you can't have it both ways. If your "Stingray" is something special because of a emblem that means that flag emblem must mean there is something special about the corvettes that have them.
When people look at the Stingray emblem on my vette they always say"ooohh its a Stingray" what does that mean?
I tell them its the vettes version of an "SS".
It will be a great selling point when Im ready to sell!

I'm one who knows that a 68 is a Stingray for sure, don't screw with me on how it may be spelt either! How do I know, because GM say's so!! I'm not sure of the last year Stingray as I haven;t seem it in print from GM is all. Any one who say's they know better than the people who invented, built, designed, produced and sold these cars is just plain and should not be listen to about anything!!!!! Now if they were just wrong and stand corrected then thats a different person than I;m talking about!!!!!
