Default 1975 corvette green
We own a 1975 green corvette convertible that is a 4speed. Anyone know how how many were produced by chance?
It also has AC
Thanks!

According to Vettefacts.com, 4,629 convertibles were produced for the 75 model year. It also shows that 1,664 cars were painted Bright green, but doesn't show the breakdown between coupes and convertibles. It's a good source for info though.

Stewart that is a beautiful car and color. I have only seen a couple in this color. It really stands out. Thanks for posting the pictures. I am sure that others have enjoyed them as well.

Is that the L82 symbol on the hood? If your car has an L82 engine you have an even more rare combination.

BTW that color is BRIGHT GREEN METALLIC, nick named 7-Up Green.

So with those numbers, purely statistically speaking - there should have been around 200 green verts in 75...
