When General Motors debuted the Corvette back in 1953 it came with a price tag of about $3,500. They’ve gone up a bit since then though and some that can be found at the Hamilton Warplane Heritage Museum this week are worth hundreds of thousands!

Over 60 Corvettes have moved into the museum- from the classics like a 1967 C-2 worth $100 000 to the exotic like a limited edition 2017 Callaway worth over $200 000.

There’s something for everyone and these people aren’t just buying Corvettes because they’re eye candy, they’re buying history.

There is a model from 1956 that is historic because it was the first Corvette with roll up windows and the fastest for it’s time.

The most expensive car on display is a 1967 worth three quarters of a million dollars, for it’s rare features including it’s black exterior and air conditioning.

If you want to go see the Corvette’s, the doors open tomorrow morning until Saturday evening.
