No.168, Matching numbers example Polo White on a Sportsman Red Interior with National AACA Hershey top flight award. This 1953 Chevrolet Corvette Blue Flame is 1 of 300 built. In 1953 the corvette was its first production year and the lowest volume corvette ever built. This 53 is outfitted with a 6 cylinder Blue Flame engine that produces 150hp mated to a two speed Powerglide automatic transmission. All 300 corvette built during that year came with the same options and same color. There is to account for only 180 left in the entire world. Because of the short production run the 53 model is the rarest of all Corvettes.
.
