Vehicle Description

This is an early 1954 Corvette with 54,041 original miles. It is the 495th Corvette produced. I have owned the car for a little over a year and believe i'm the 4th or 5th owner. There were a little over 53,500 miles on the car when I purchased it. I have photos of this car at a show in 1976 with the same approximate miles on it. It had not been driven in 29 years.

The car is numbers correct except for the voltage regulator (recently replaced), the master cylinder which is a 56 or 57 unit and the fuel pump which is a 53 style. The engine is original to the car, serial no. 0275809F54YG. All gauges work except for the tach (needs new drive in distributor). The Wonderbar radio also works.

The car handles and drives very well. The steering is tight and the brakes work perfectly. The front and rear main seals have dried out from lack of use and the car does leak some oil. The Powerglide also leaks a bit, but, I hear they did this on the showroom floor. The carburators have been rebuilt as has the water pump. I also had the fuel tank boiled out to remove any deposits. The exhaust system has been replaced with  an aluminized unit from Corvette Central.

The chassis and undercarriage of the car is clean and appears to have been restoredat some point in the past. The interior is very nice and I think original. The top is a new Al Koch unit with correct dating for a Feb 1954 manufactured car. The windshield was replaced in Nov. of 1963.

The paint is fresh Nitrocellulose Polo White Lacquer. There is one old fiberglass repair on the drivers front fender that was probably done in the 60's.

The chrome is in good condition. The stainless side trim and seat surrounds were re-polished when the car was repainted. One of the flippers that cover the hole for the top irons is broken but I have the piece. The side curtains are in good shape with minor chrome flaking on one.

The car is not perfect, but shows very well. If you have further questions or I can clarify anything please call me (Mike) at (970 232-6014 days or (970) 586-5543 evenings.

I will except cash, cashiers check (must clear before delivery) or a bank wire transfer. Successful bidder must send a 10% deposit within 3 business days of auction closing.
