Dan,
Well, I'd have to do more research to be sure, but I thought that
the delay was due to time overuns in developing the next generation
of Corvettes. As for whether what they did constituted "continuous
production", I think it's kind of a semantics game. If they had
continued to produce identical cars for ten years, rather than just
two, and sold them all as 1983 Corvettes, would you still call that
continous production? Maybe. I should have worded the question
differently, but thought that would make it too easy.
