Default Throwback Thursday: The Very First LS1 Chevrolet Corvette Commercial

For my first Throwback Thursday segment here on LS1Tech.com, I thought that there was really no better video to feature than the very first 1997 Chevrolet Corvette commercial as, in addition to being the first commercial spot for the C5 Corvette – it was also the first commercial for the LS1 engine.

Read the story and watch the video here:

I thought the beginning was one of those annoying ads you get before every YouTube video but then realized it was for the Corvette. Probably a razor sharp ad and marketing back in 1997 but not so hot now. Love the car though!
