Car history: |
Supercharged. St. Paul, MN (as of 1974). Update: owned by Fred. L. Neff of Bloomington, MN (per Noland Adams). Body off restoration. A previous owner: Jean and Ed Thiebaud. Listed on "The 1953 Corvette Honor Roll", a 1969 "Corvette News" survey (Jean and Ed Thiebaud).
Dave Ferguson, former NCRS judging team leader & former owner of supercharged 1024, visited 1060 in 2006 & said in a National Corvette Restorer article, I was impressed at the beautiful and authentic condition of the car. The exterior body showed no sign of ever having even the slightest damage to the body or work done to it. The original cloth of the fiberglass was an example of the car's high state of originality. The exterior paint was correctly repainted being careful to maintain the type, color and luster of paint for a 1953 Corvette. Bodywork was a originally delivered with appropriate fit, finishes, and rough spots.... The supercharged system's installation in Fred's car appeared identical to the one I found on my own car. It was clear that these cars were done by the same entity. National Corvette Restorer, Vol. 36, No. 3, Winter 2010, page 9. |
