Beautiful Tribute Car was built to Drive Daily This tribute to the original 1953 Corvette has been updated with a modern 305 V8 engine and automatic transmission vs. the little Blue Flame 6 cylinder engine that came in them originally. It is a great example of America’s first sports car. The 305 V8 completely transforms the car from decent performance for “back in the day” to great performance for a sports car today. Take her for a spin and you’ll get goose bumps. The antique white paint gives it the original look and the red interior is close to the original OEM spec. This car has basket wire wheels with spinners, wide white wall tires, and authentic Standard Oil Red Crown valve caps. It looks fantastic with sleek lines of a body style that was way ahead of its time, almost 60 years ago. The beige convertible top looks good as does the chrome all the way around. It is a trophy winning daily driver. Ladies say it is beautiful and men give thumbs up. I believe the first person to see and drive this updated version of a ’53 Corvette will buy it. So Buy It Now.

I sent it out for repair and it came back as not repairable. Need to find a better repairman. Why am I selling the car? I am 70+ years old, sold my house, lost my garage, sold most of my tools and moved into a senior independent living facility. My car buff days are over. Tough to get old but, as George Burns said, “It beats the alternative.” My loss is your gain. Good luck bidding.
