VIN Location Tips

Corvette VINs begin with 1G1. The 11th digit is always "5", designating the Bowling Green Assembly plant in Kentucky.

Authenticating a Chevrolet Corvette Through the VIN

The Chevrolet Corvette is one of North America's most recognizable automotive nameplates. Decoding its 17-digit VIN reveals original factory trim grades, powertrain options, standard vs optional all-wheel-drive configurations, and assembly origin.

Verifying Safety Equipment and Recalls

When purchasing a used Corvette, verifying that the factory safety equipment listed in federal records (such as side curtain airbags and stability control) matches the actual physical cabin components ensures the vehicle has not been subject to substandard collision restoration.
