The first model year for the Corvette was 1953, but America’s sports car had a bit of a slow start. During this year, only 300 cars were produced marking it as the lowest production volume model year in Corvette’s history. Effectively, these cars were hand-built and appropriately each 1953 Corvette is slightly different from the next.
A lack of experienced craftsman and quality fiberglass created issues with water leaks, fit and finish, and door fitment. While these issues were eventually resolved, the public had a negative reaction to the Corvette’s debut.
That being said, all the cars were finished with Polo White exteriors, red interiors, and black canvas tops. Original manuals depict them as options, but all 300 cars were built with heaters and an AM radio. The original cost of the C1 was $3490, and over 200 are reported to be in existence today.
