The 53 Corvette was a production line of only 300 rare cars which were built by hand at the GM facility in Flint, Michigan. They were a classic white with a red interior and held 150 horsepower, straight six cylinder engines. There are only 255 that are still accounted for today. In fact, the public was so eager at that time that the first 5 Vettes were missing the outside rear view mirror, external door handles and side windows. Production was rushed back then but the rebuild enthusiast of today can afford to take their time and make this a car to savor.
