About the real car:
 
The car we selected was a gift from Bill Mitchell, then GM’s Styling Chief, to his brilliant predecessor, and the creator of the Corvette, Harley Earl. It became Harley’s personal Corvette. It was the first Sting Ray convertible, although it was offered with an auxiliary hard top. The car featured a unique blue paint scheme with a white stripe. The super-cool feature for its time was the outside exiting exhaust pipes. Finally, the wheels were cast aluminum, not offered to the public until an option in 1964.

The interior featured custom-fitted leather with matching white inserts.
