Classic Corvettes make a pit stop in Danbury

A sleek fiberglass body, a big engine and the open road on a sunny, summer day. Put them all together and they spell Corvette, the dream car for many a teenaged boy in the late 1950s and 1960s.

There was no 1983 Camero or Firebird built that year either

I offer this from the GM web site: "Pontiac offered a 4-cylinder, 6-cylinder and three V8's in the 1983 Firebird"

And this: "1983

Following a short production year due to an all new “F-body” few changes were made to the ‘83 models -- and those changes were primarily color and trim. A 5-speed manual transmission became available on Camaro. A 4-speed automatic was also offered for the first time. The 8-track tape player disappeared for the ‘83 models and in its place: the cassette tape player. A new 190hp V8 was introduced midway through the model year. Known as the 5.0 liter h.o. it was available only with a 5-speed manual transmission -- and a total of 3,223 units were built with this powertrain.
Total production reached 154,381 for the ‘83 model year."
