I just started reading Hemmings Classic Car. On page 12 February issue there is a short blurb on a '53 with a steel hood identified as # 57 and the car came out of a junk yard. There are a couple pictures. What's up?

Re: 53 with a steel hood????
If I remember correctly that Corvette with the steel hood was at The SACC Corvette 50th anniversary celebration in Flint ,Michigan.
Apparently it was made so some comparison testing with it and a fiberglass hood could be made. I think the test was done with a bowling ball but I do not know what the weight was.
Anyone else remember it?- Top
