An opportunity to own the 27th Corvette ever produced in 1953 will present itself at this weekend’s Mecum Daytime Auction in Monterey, California. Even better, the car in question has less than 4,000 original miles on its odometer. It is part of the 26-car Ed Foss Low-Mileage Corvette Collection that will cross the auction block at the Hyatt Regency Monterey Hotel and Spa – Del Monte Golf Course August 13-15.
In addition to the barely broken-in ’53, other cars from the collection include: a 2003 50th Anniversary Edition with only 135 miles on it; one of 116 1969 L88s with but 6,453 miles on its clock; an award-winning yet unrestored fuel-injected 1965 four-speed roadster with just 1,652 miles; an original, unrestored 1963 Split-window Coupe with 4,526 miles; and a 1972 convertible showing just four miles!
