    They had to train salesmen about the Corvette?

    I guess they felt like they did. The Corvette part of the video starts at about 5:50: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=__j5y50sdLY

      Thanks for posting the video. I see it mentions the Camero has "variable ratio steering" a term that I have not often heard ... I assume the Corvette had it as well but just didn't advertise as such?

        For some that have never heard about it. This is a website that has training film& records from the 60'S & one from 1970 that I loned him to copy.

          Russ was kind enough to convert my '57 Jim Handy Training Kit slides to video about 15 years or so ago.

            I hope salesmen got more training on Corvette than this video. It views like a long commercial- lots of platitudes; not much substance about the car.

              Think they were more for a pep talk & to keep salesmen attention. LOL Most salesmen in the day also didnt now jack about the cars they were selling & less about HP cars.
