1956 Chevrolet Corvette (C1) - NAS 252

1956 Chevrolet Corvette (C1) - NAS 252
This car actually featured on the Florida drag scene for many years, before being purchased in 2003 from a Corvette dealer in Ohio, via the internet, by Howard Dawson.

It was shipped to Felixstowe, via New Jersey, before being driven a further 270 miles to its new home in the North East of England.

Much work and many miles later the car is enjoying its new life here in the UK even if it does leak, in the words of the owners, from everywhere except the hood.

Apparently, it took them until they were 50 before they could afford the car and they can't see a time when they will ever want to sell it.

Can't say I'm surprised!

You and me both Phil and to be honest even at this height I was still getting things popping over the bonnet. If you look at the original, which I've added into Notes, you'll see I cheated and did a little bit of work to clean it up! ;)
