Top 10 Corvettes Heading to Mecum Monterey 2021

Mecum rolls out the red carpet for a few Corvettes during Monterey Car Week. Here are the 10 we love the most from the upcoming auction.

Monterey Car Week is around the bend, and that means plenty of Corvettes will be there to grace the hallowed grounds of Pebble Beach and The Quail. Not to mention all the ‘Vettes hitting the track at Laguna Seca, rolling through the streets of Monterey, and, of course, crossing the auction block. Nearly every major auction house will be at Monterey Car Week, moving only the finest of machines.

One of those houses will be Mecum Auctions. Their red-carpet extravaganza is set for August 12 through 14, with 600 cars looking for new homes. Among them are 19 Corvettes thus far, including our 10 favorites.

10. 1978 Corvette Indy 500 Pace Car Replica

This 1978 Indy 500 replica stands out for two reasons. First, it only has 19 miles on its L82 V8. That may be the lowest mileage we’ve seen on such a Corvette as this one. Second, it’s also a one-owner car. Forty-three years with the same owner, and only 19 miles on the road. And in nearly showroom-condition? Color us stunned!
