This 2000 Chevrolet Corvette 50th Anniversary AAT Conversion is an eye-catching collectible that makes daily driving a classic car easy for anybody! The 1953 Chevrolet Corvette marked the beginning of a true American sports car legacy. This original two-seat convertible featured a lightweight fiberglass body, 235 cubic inch inline-six engine, and 2-speed automatic transmission. Though the first Corvette had a distinctive design, it lacked power and modern conveniences. Over the next 70+ years, the Corvette would evolve into one of the most iconic and sought-after performance cars in the world. Ahead of the Corvettes 50th Anniversary in 2003, Chevrolet explored special-edition prototypes-including one radical design that paid tribute to the 1953 Corvettes classic styling. While GM ultimately chose to release a tamer, limited-edition 2003 C5 Corvette with 50th Anniversary Red paint, champagne interior, and commemorative embroidery, the retro prototype didnt disappear. A former GM designer acquired the molds and founded Advanced Automotive Technologies (AAT), offering the 53 Commemorative Edition Corvette. Built on a C5 Corvette convertible chassis, this unique model featured a redesigned hood, front and rear fascias, classic round headlights, chrome bumpers, vintage-style taillights, and a diecast front grille.
