New 53 Corvette owner
New member here and my 1st post. I recently acquired a 1953 Corvette (body only) from my brother who passed away. He had owned the body for 30 years but never did anything with it.
I have always been a Chevrolet enthusiast since high school, when I bought my 1st car. I dreamed of a Corvette but couldn't afford it so I settled for a 1970 SS Camaro. Ever since then I have always had at least one 1970 Camaro at home and currently own 2 rare 1970 L78 Camaro's.
Unfortunately, the 53 Corvette body is something I don't want to get into, especially since it has zero parts and is just a shell. I plan to list it up for sale soon.
