CORVETTE TODAY #216 - Meet Corvette Legend, Don Runkle



Don Runkle may not be a household name right now in the world of Corvette, but he sure was when the C4 was launching!

Don sits down with your CORVETTE TODAY host, Steve Garrett, to talk about his career.

Runkle was the Chief Engineer for Chevrolet, he worked with Zora Arkus Duntov, he's been at the head of many companies, including Delphi.

Don tells the story of how Corvette engineers got the OK for the C4 Corvette along with the story of how we didn't have a 1983 Corvette! He also tells the story of what happened when Corvette was supposed to go to 6 cylinders or diesel.

Plus, Don was nominated for the Corvette Hall of Fame this year!

Don was one of the key figures in Corvette history that kept the Corvette flame burning bright! You'll truly enjoy this episode of CORVETTE TODAY!
