1975 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray | Heybridge Basin, Essex

A 1975 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, from the C3 generation, known for its long, sculpted body, pop-up headlights and V8 power. The Stingray name ran on these cars from 1969 to 1976, and the shape still says 1970s American sports car at a glance. This car is finished in Gold with a matching Gold interior, a warm single-colour scheme that holds together in frame. It has a 5.7-litre V8 and seats two. It is left-hand drive: the driver sits on the kerb side, so the front passenger steps out on the road side, and the car carries a distinctly American look. The long bonnet and low stance give film and TV, music video and photography work a strong period profile, while the single colour keeps fashion and editorial frames clean. At events it makes a memorable arrival. A wedding or personal hire gets the same 1970s presence. The car is based in Heybridge Basin, Essex.
