Hi all,
A customer brought in a 1954 Corvette (Only 3640 ever made) into the shop today and needs a little bit of work done to it. I was surprised to see that it was factory pennant blue with all matching numbers (Only 300 ever made). I got to talking with the owner and he told me that this was personally owned by Walt Disney himself. I am a huge Disney fan myself and have never heard of Walt Disney owning a corvette. Has anyone ever heard of this or be able to provide any lead to info on this topic? I initially wrote off the story as just that... a story, but as I poke around this car I find things that make we want to believe. I don't want to give away the details that I have found until hopefully someone can confirm what I have potentially found.
