experimental 1953 Corvette (PICS)

Not too many people know that McCulloch supercharged one 1953-Corvette in those days.
But because the V-8 was just around the corner GM abandoned the idea.
One can recognize this special Corvette by looking at the wire-wheels and the "supercharger" logo between both headlights.
I was amazed to see that the Provence Moulage-kit, which this is, had the "supercharger"-logo as a decal....
The only thing the guys at PM forgot was to add the special wheels...
But fortunately Brooklin's Amanda threw in a set of wire wheels that looked just like the real ones...
