COF BOARD MEETING NOTICE<br />

START TIME IS 6:30 PM - EVERYONE IS WELCOME<br />
The 1997 Corvette features several firsttime<br />
high tech innovations, such as black<br />
lights for the instrument panel and a<br />
"plastic" (composite) intake manifold.<br />
The first 200 production C5 Corvettes were<br />
painted red, not the traditional white color<br />
for the first production run.<br />
The 1997 Corvette is the first one designed<br />
from the ground up as a Corvette, with<br />
very little borrowing of parts from other<br />
cars. One of the few "Off the Shelf" parts<br />
are the exterior door handles which are<br />
the same ones used on the Oldsmobile<br />
Aurora.<br />
The first use of a transaxle in a<br />
production Corvette occurred in the '97.<br />
However, the first plans for one were in<br />
the Q-Corvette in 1958, planned for the<br />
1960 model. Transaxles showed up in<br />
Corvette prototypes in the mid '60s in<br />
running models.<br />
