F/S 1955 Corvette
F/S 1955 Corvette VE55S001006 # 6 out of 700 built. One of the earliest 55's around. Top Flight 97%. Comes with new enclosed trailer with winch, straps and tie downs. I have commitments to have the car in the Chester July 4th parade after that it can be sold. I've had this car so long I hate to let it go....I took it out on dates when I was in high school...1961. It's time it needs to be in someones collection. I almost hit a deer with it the other day.
The car was chosen as the cover and Jan. for the Corvette Calender. It also represented 1955 at the Rolex 60 years of Corvette Reunion Laguna Seca Last year. Has also won several first place awards at local car shows.
There is a lot of information about the car at www.AmericanTorque.com/BJ (prob. have to copy and paste)
Car can be seen by appointment 530 596 4099 or bjretired@gmail.com It will be on the lift so send someone by to look at it. Located at lake Almanor, Ca. 150 Miles N. of Sac. and 120 Miles N. of Reno. I'm Asking $113,000. for it including the trailer. and a lot of extra parts. Possible trade for a 90's ZR1 driver (Ca smogable) and cash

It has the black plates now. Bob's Bait and Bull. That was a long time ago. Bob Luna moved down to the flat lands years ago. Water front homes are still over a Mil. But since the housing bust there are some real deals. A lot of people lost their summer homes. Fishing is still really good. Bob

Wowzer! Great car!
I have been looking for a 1954 I could afford so this is obviously out of my price range!
If you decide to give a 50% discount I will be there on the next flight out!

Beautiful car! Spent many summers up at Lake Almanor at my Aunt and Uncle's place - Bob and Helen Lichti. They also bought a small resort there and updated it many years ago - Lichti's Landing.
Good luck with the sale! Are you sure you want to sell her? Wow, I would have a hard time if I had it so long with all the memories!

Thanks for the compliments. Donna and I knew the Lichti's. The resort is now called Almanor Resort. Their son is still in the area. Talk about memories, my old 56 #64 has been been on Ebay as a barn find....My mom sold it in 1965 when I went into the AF. I wish I had room for it. bob
