It will be on Proteam's lot for $250,000 in a couple of months.

A '54? It's a straight six, doubt it's a '53.

Mine was a '53, and it had a factory installed 265 V8 with two 4-barrels. It ran like a scalded ape....

I guess you're the same guy who had the proto type steel bodied corvette too. :slap:

Bullshit. The Corvette didn't have a V8 in '53. Or '54.

Me too. I kept it in the garage, next to my rare '83.

Well, seeing that there were only a little over 3oo 53s made, I'd say it's a 54, and they were all straight sixes, polo white with red interiours, and....automatics.
So I think the Spence man is making a funny with his new v8 53, which debuted in 55, plus he'd have to be around 80 years old now, at least. :D

I knew the V8 was bogus. Spence being 80 I can believe :D
