For 1962, the Chevrolet Corvette retained much of the styling from the previous year’s model. New for 1962 was the introduction of the 327-cid V-8 engine, which replaced the 283-cid engine. Nineteen sixty-two was the final year of first generation C1 Corvette production. It also marking the last year of solid rear axle, electric generators and exposed headlights, a feature which didn’t return to the Corvette until 2005.
