No changes were made to the mechanical packages and chassis of the 1959 Corvette versus the 1958 model year. Sales remained strong and a total of 9,670 cars were produced for the 1959 model year.
Another year of Corvette sales and another year of strong growth for the still nascent American sports car. 1958 saw 9,168 Corvettes produced. The design was tweaked again this year with more aggressive highlights
The momentum continued from 1956 into 1957 with production volumes ramping up. 6,339 units were produced in 1957, up from 3,467 units in 1956.
1956 saw the introduction of a redesign to the C1 Corvette and the changes made a difference with 3,467 units produced in 1956. All were convertibles since that was the only body style in 1956.
In 1955 hopes were high for big growth in Corvette production (north of 10,000 units were predicted). It turned out to be a horrible year and almost caused the death of the model. Only 700 units were produced in 1955.
In 1953, a total of 300 Corvettes were produced. The first Corvette came off the assembly line on June 30, 1953. The first two were destroyed as they were engineering test cars.
