Hey gang. Some of you may remember me telling you about the Ressler Corvette Collection here in North Dakota. (He has the oldest known corvette, 1953 #003)
Anyway, I was looking at it online today and realized that he has quite a collection. What's even more amazing than the cars is the mileage on some of them.
He has a '78 Anniversary car with 425 miles, a '78 Pace Car with 76 miles, a '90 ZR1 with 300 miles, a '95 Pace Car with 23 miles, a '96 Collectors Edition with 9 miles, and the list goes on. Of course as a Chevrolet Dealer he was able to get most of them straight from the factory, and that's why a lot of them have low miles.
Here's the site if you're interested:

The next time passing through "Norda Hoda" will have to plan a stop there.
Thanks Bryan!

Thanks, I enjoyed looking through the site.
To think that #3 was probaly not much more than an old used car at one time. Didn't they save #1??

Not a problem guys.
Jeff, I don't think anyone really knows what happened to #001 and #002. They could be anywhere, or long gone.

Some of you have been keeping up with the Barrett Jackson auction. The first production ZR1 was just sold for 1 million dollars, and it was purchased by Dave Ressler, the owner of the above collection, which has the other million dollar corvette, 1953 #003. Must be nice to have two million dollar corvettes!

Really enjoyed the site of the Ressler Corvette Collection!! Thanks for sharing. It's my understanding that #001 and #002 were destroyed. Anybody have more info on that?
