neat find....I love the pic w all the boxes... I bought a 61 vette that looked like that....and a 69 vette once I bought was a work benck with bed spreads the only protection !!!

there is a 'supposed' 53 vette in my neighborhood that is same family owned and stored on blocks since original owner died....seemed like a reliable source that told me about it ..about 10 years ago now...I spent many a day trying to find that car.... I guess you never know...

Hmmm...I thought it was a little low, but I assumed that '54's brought '53 money.

Marlin, unfortunately not nearly the car. #1 condition '54 is around $100,000 tops... Equally as beautiful but not close to value.

Interesting, aren't they essentially the exact same car - just '53 had but 300 built, and '54 had additional body colors?
