- 04-20-2015: Up for auction by Worldwide Auctioneers - The Houston Classic Auction - April 2015. From the listing: "This wonderful first-year example is the 220th of the 300 Corvettes produced for 1953 and it stands as one of as few as an estimated 225 survivors remaining in existence today. Now offered from a highly knowledgeable consignor, who has owned twelve 1953 Corvettes over the years, this fine example clearly benefits from a freshly completed body-off restoration performed by 1953 Corvette restoration expert Brett Henderson of Pendleton, Indiana’s Blue Flame Restoration. As offered, the Corvette stands ready for showing and competition at the highest levels of judged Corvette events and it is complete with full weather gear including a proper convertible top and side curtains, plus a CD documenting its restoration process. With the Corvette progressing through its landmark seventh generation, the very rare first-year examples continue to be highly collectible and desirable touchstones to the Corvette’s earliest roots. Accordingly, this particular 1953 Corvette is certainly at the top of its class."
