Chevrolet Corvette Book
A global journey across 70 years of Corvette history through the personal stories of 70 Vette owners and the expert photography of Mario Brunner.
The Chevrolet Corvette recently celebrated its 70th anniversary. To mark the occasion, professional photographer Mario Brunner—himself a Corvette owner and enthusiast—traveled throughout the US and Germany to interview 70 diverse Corvette owners and photograph their cars.
With his evocative photos and the owners’ own words, Brunner provides a glimpse into the international scene around this automotive icon. These stunning images were taken in North America and Germany—in metropolises such as Los Angeles, Detroit, and Hamburg; rural Pennsylvania; the tranquil town of Mühldorf am Inn; and many more places. What these images and stories have in common is the love each owner has for their Corvette—the American two-seater par excellence.
This book includes
• every Corvette from the very first model in 1953, right up to the brand-new C8 and every body style in between;
• more than 475 full-color images of the 70 Corvettes, both stationary and in action;
• the personal stories of 70 Corvette owners and enthusiasts in the US and Germany. Whether it is about a high-speed chase or a wedding, a victory on the racetrack or a tour, each story takes the reader into the colorful world of the Corvette.
This is a lighthearted, beautifully illustrated journey through Corvette history that will appeal to the Corvette owner and the aspiring Corvette owner alike.
