1953 CHEVROLET CORVETTE
This is a true piece of Americana. Number 89 of only 300 Corvettes produced in 1953, and hand built on a special production line in Flint, MI. It is believed that there are less than 200 of these cars left in the world today. This is classic GM styling by Harley Earl with a low body and wrap around windshield glass, headlights with metal stone guards, and nice chrome trim down the sides and delicate chrome bumpers. The paint color is Polo white with a red interior and black cloth folding top hidden beneath a beautiful painted cover. The snap in side curtains are included in the trunk, but you'll never want to put the top up when driving this beauty. The engine is a 235CID inline six cylinder with triple carburetors on an aluminum intake producing 150 hp. The transmission is a two speed "Powerglide" automatic sending power to the rear wheels. Factory equipped with the only two available options consisting of a heater and AM signal seeking radio. Beautiful wide whitewalls with red wheels and chrome caps add to the style and beauty of this classic Corvette. This is a rare opportunity to put a true American classic in your garage. Call or stop by today and enjoy the pride in owning the genesis of America's only true sports car!!!
