Default Not a C3 but............

Had to post these for anyone interested in Corvette history. This 1953 Corvette showed up at our weekly Saturday car show. One of only 300 built and 200 that still exist!

Thanks to Harley Earl and Zora Arkus Duntov! I remember in the 60s if you had a Duntov Cam in your SBC, you were virtually unbeatable! Very few knew what a Duntov Cam meant, it just had a good sound to it!
