Default Met a '54 owner with a similar story to mine




I was at a small local car show tonight (only about 25 cars - all types and years). I parked next to this beautiful 54. Like me, he inherited the car when his father passed away a few years ago. Like my dad, his dad was the original owner.

Pretty cool.

That is cool, not many people can say they have had that car in there family all it's live. My brother in law got his 53 Corvette from his father who bought it in 1954 from a GM big shot. Had less then 1000 miles on it at the time.
Pass it on to your son or daughter and keep your 54 in the family

Actually mine is the 61 in the background... but yes, my 14 year old son already has the bug!
