Dream Cars You'd Love to Own

Enthusiasts have been carrying on a love affair with the Corvette for 55 years. Introduced in 1953 as a two-seat personal car, the 'Vette evolved into the "Great American Sports Car."

Corvette Masterpieces — with its large, lavish photos — captures at the most fabulous 'Vettes ever made. Author Jerry Heasley, lead photographer and feature writer for numerous Corvette magazines, shares his countless photo shoots of truly spectacular 'Vettes. His unmatched access to these cars and his library of images makes this book different than any other Corvette title ever published.

The more than 500 images from Jerry's vast library include:

  • Photo shoots of both coveted '69 ZL1 'Vettes, the famed multi-million-dollar cars of lore and legend!
  • Celebrity cars belonging to: Johnny Carson, Burt Reynolds, Dinah Shore, John Cougar Mellencamp, Roy Orbison, Alan Jackson, George Strait, Dwight Yokum, Mario Andretti, A.J. Foyt and others.
  • The original Waldorf Astoria Corvette that debuted the new sports car in 1953. It is ultra-valuable and famous.
  • 1955 test mules that were used to prototype the V-8 engine that vaulted the 'Vette into supercar status.
  • Famous show cars such as the Mako Shark, CERV-1 and the movie car from "Corvette Summer".
  • Rare and valuable "styling" cars specially built for GM executives including Bunkie Knudsen and Harley Earl.
  • Spectacular specialty cars built by Callaway, Baldwin-Motion, Ligenfelter and others.
  • Legendary production 'Vettes like the '57 air-box "fuelies", the second-generation '63 "split-window" 'Vettes, the racing-inspired "big-tank" cars, the '68 "shark bodies" and the awesome new C6 'Vettes of today.

A fantastic book filled with fantastic 'Vettes and fantastic ideas for your own 'Vette!
