The Corvette Stingray is one of the most iconic cars
in the world as far as its design is concerned. Its shape transcends decades of
automotive advancements, as it is considered by many to be beautiful even by
today’s standards.
It’s why Chevrolet is still reaping the benefits of
having invented the Stingray to begin with, using the name within their current
lineup for cars, but also building concept vehicles along the way, like the
Stingray Concept from 2009 that starred in a Transformer movie.
That particular concept car marked the 50th
anniversary of the nameplate, but what about its 60th? Well, a designer by the
name of Dejan Hristov has that covered, putting together a digital iteration of
the original Corvette Stingray Racer from 1959, albeit with a modern twist, of
course.
The thing is, you can hardly use the term ‘modern’
in the same sentence with ‘Original Corvette Stingray’, because its design is
simply put, timeless, and even a modern interpretation will inevitably have to
adhere to a specific set of lines and curves that just don’t work anymore if
they’re streamlined by 2019 standards.
