Default Who begat the Corvette Family!

Thou shalt always honor thy father of the Corvette,

Zora Arkus-Duntov, and his Chosen Disciples:

Harley Earl
Ed Cole
Bill Mitchell
Larry Shinoda
Dave McLellan
Jerry Palmer
John Cafaro

Thou shalt also honor thy tribes of Callaway and Liggenfelter. Thou shalt never lie down with any of those that are not of the house of Bowling Green or St. Louis. Let us forgive those who alter their cars with blasphemous results, for they know not what they do. This is as the prophecy fortells, and thy will be done forever and forever. Yea, though we drive down the valley of regular production vehicles, lead us not into temptation to race them, or to be tempted by them.
