Let’s Play, Corvette Odd-Ball: FOR SALE – 1980 Four-Door Corvette

I’ve worked as a designer at Tyco Toys and Mattel Mt. Laurel in the R&D department. The ONLY way that bone headed ideas ever get past the verbal stage is if an executive makes the suggestion. Then you have to build one just to show the Mensa Society genius that it’s a dorky idea. A prototype 4-seater Sting ray was cobbled together and the story goes that an executive got stuck in the back seat and needed a lot of help to get out! I never heard of what happened to the prototype, but it probably went straight to the crusher where it belonged. Fortunately, that seemed to get Chevrolet off the four-seater Corvette forever.
