Junkman ◊ 2006-01-29 23:37	It is a 54 or 55. 53s were available in polo white only.
Jaqob P. ◊ 2006-02-04 20:00	But still pretty rare
bigguy1960 ◊ 2006-09-14 16:07	This car and several others (notably the yellow Ford Wagon and the black Ford Convertible) are seen over and over and over in the last big chase scene, in different locations, so either its not THAT rare, or they thought we wouldn't notice!

Skid ◊ 2021-09-16 21:07	The gray or silver color shown here does not correspond to any 1953-1955 Corvette color, so there is actually a possibility this is a 1953. The visible red interior is correct for all 1953s, any 1954s that weren't Pennant Blue, and 1955s that were Polo White.
