1962 Corvette
Chevrolet showed the
experimental Mako Shark for the first time. Sales had increased to the point where a
second shift at the plant was added shortly after 1962 production began. Engine
displacement increased from 283ci in 1961 to 327ci for 1962. Dual carburetor engines were
no longer available. 1962 Corvettes could not be ordered with a painted side cove.
