Vehicle Description
This a great example of a very original and highly authentic,
unmolested 1953 Corvette. #257 ever built! It is a real 73,000 mile
original car that has been cosmetic restored in some but not all
areas.
The body appears to be a nice and clear undamaged original example
that was repainted about 10 years ago. With all trim re-chromed and
polished. The interior is original in the dash area and gauges and
appears to have never been apart. New seat covers , carpets etc
from when repainted. The chassis, engine , engine compartment
appears to never have been apart other than maintenance. The
transmission had never been apart or rebuilt until 2018 and
expertly rebuilt by County Corvette. The car amazingly has an
original NON DOT 50's spare tire, a bit worn but still there!
The windshield and side glass is all original and properly dated.
Also includes very early aftermarket hardtop! This was a mint
original car when sold in 1978 for $39,000 to George Sipple. There
is a good history summary of this car to 1974 forward including the
1978 sales receipt and title history. Also included are many
periodicals from the 50's etc.
This car at first glance looks like a restored perfect car. Combine
that with original components and very original chassis and it's a
great in between car, thus priced accordingly at $140,000 reduced
from $179,900. There are no others available on the market in this
condition for this price.
This is a special car. Don't miss it!
