My 1953, the 25th
Corvette built
These pictures were taken
in 1961 when I brought my Corvette home. If you could see the lawn area
blocked by the car you would see that the house number was on a two foot long sign in the
shape of the Chevrolet bow tie emblem. I was an avid six cylinder ( there
were no V-8's yet ) Chevy fan since my high
school days and built a " Hot Rod " in 1950. I wanted a Corvette from the first time I saw one. Finally owning
one was a real thrill for me and my family.
These two boys are my son’s, Bill and Joe,
they are a bit older now but still remember the day I brought my 1953 Corvette
home. They were in the house and saw me pull up in front. My
wife said they started leaping up and down shouting “Daddy has a Corvette!”
They ran outside, jumped into the car and posed for this picture.
