I wonder what country these cars were exported to.
The '60 and '63 both have amber rear back up lenses instead of clear but I wonder if this was an export requirment.
The '60 appears to have a white painted rear body panel.
I sure would like to check out that "3 speed synchromesh powerglide"- lol.

The story board on the '60 indicates it has a small block 283. The cross flags on the trunk and grill means it should have a W-block 348. The '60 could be an original 348 car and the 283 was installed at some time. The '60 could also be an original 283 car and the incorrect emblems installed during the restoration.
The '63 is an Impala convertible and it is equipped with incorrect SS wheel covers.
Both cars were exports to Australia.

Right on, I totally agree on these points. My older brother had a blue '60 Impala convertible. I remember helping him wax those fins. Everytime I'm waxing the shoulders on my Camaro, I think about that car.

Name two exterior differences between this 1953 Motorama Corvette and production 1953 Corvettes.

One difference is the upside down fender trim. I don't think the production '53 had those '56-'57 fender scoops... Going from memory of course on those scoops.

Here's an "open" question that can cover all 100 years:

What is YOUR favorite Chevrolet, if you could ONLY have ONE?

Year/Model/major equipment
