I scanned and posted three more early Corvette items for download:
1. A 1961 article by Don Yenko on how to prepare a Corvette for racing. Good info on fuel injection, big brakes, etc.
2. A 1962 article about Dave MacDonald's effort to strip a thousand pounds out of a 62 Corvette to make the car go FAST. By the time Dave was done, the car weighed 1750 pounds, and went thru the traps at Cotati in excess of 140mph. Dave would later go on to be one of the early Cobra drivers, but died in a horrific accident at the Indy 500 in 1964.
3. A circa 53 to 55 GM publication: "Corvette - Plastic Body - Repairing and Refinishing"
