Chevrolet Corvette Specs, Engines & Dimensions (1962–1967) — Second Generation
The second-generation Chevrolet Corvette is a two-seat sports car offered as a Coupe or Roadster. Both closed and open bodies keep the same basic idea: a compact cabin, a long hood, and a driver-focused layout.
The Chevrolet Corvette engine here is a gasoline V8. In the 6.5 MT Coupe and Roadster examples, that motor and a manual transmission send power to the rear wheels, so you work the clutch yourself. Other powertrain pairings existed; these two bodies just illustrate the same rear-drive drivetrain.
