1953 Chevrolet Corvette - Kool Kustom

John Goodman's Kustom 1953 Corvette is a true piece of custom-car historyIt would be unthinkable to chop and modify the only 77th straight-six '53 Corvette today, but in 1959 it was written off, valued at $75, and chopped up into a radical V-8 Kustom. Sometime between 1966 and 1989, it was stripped and dumped before being rescued and beautifully restored. The Kustom shown here has been featured in many major magazines in its time, although its biggest score was landing on the front cover of Motor Trend in 1959. Like many significant works of art, it speaks to new generations and is always worth revisiting.
