As the American auto industry began it's slow and steady progression into irrelevance with poorly built and even worse designed vehicles, this gem, straight from Malaise Era Chevrolet was earmarked to be the next Corvette. A mid-engined stunner and essentially a second stab at a design from three years earlier was canned because the new layout would be too costly and too difficult to re-engineer from the existing front engined platform.
Wedge cars were all the rage and the Aerovette represents a pretty decent attempt at a halo car and a way out of the malaise.
At least in spirit.
