1967 Chevrolet 427/435 Corvette DescriptionOne of the premier cars from our private collection, ready for a new home: This is a beautifully restored, documented and numbers matching solid lifter, tri-power 427 Corvette with a four speed, and it drives perfectly. It's been a warm weather and show car its entire life--this is the kind of Corvette to keep forever. Original tank sticker Numbers matching J56 heavy duty brakes F41 special suspension Multiple Top Flight awards Extremely well finished A truly great example to drive THE Tri-Power Corvette!
For documentation, we have the original tank sticker and it's been verified as correct through multiple NCRS judgings. Our company's owner bought the car for himself in 2001 from Pro Team, and they got it from an owner in Florida who owned it since 1992. The car was taken to regional meets in Winter Haven FL in 1994, 1997 and 1998 where it scored Top Flight each time. The engine and transmission stamps were also verified as correct.
The car's option list is nothing short of amazing. Here is the list along with the number of Corvettes (out of a production run of 22, 40) made with each in parentheses:
977 Lynndale Blue (1, 81)
419 Teal Blue leather interior (unknown)
L71 427ci 435HP Tri-Power V8 (3, 54)
K66 Transistorized ignition (5, 59)
G81 Positraction axle (20, 08)
M21 Close ratio four speed transmission (11, 15)
QB1 Redline tires (4, 30)
U69 AM/FM radio (22, 93)
A01 Tinted glass, all windows (11, 31)
F41 Special front and rear suspension (2, 98)
J50 Power brakes (4, 66)
J56 Special heavy duty brakes (267)
N11 Off road exhaust (2, 26)
You can see by that list that many of those options appeared on only around 10-20% of Corvettes in '67, and the J56 brakes were only installed on 1.1% of total production! Now think about the chances that all of these options appearing on one car--this is definitely one of the best optioned Corvettes you'll find.
Even though the car was still in show-winning form the car was repainted and had a fresh interior installed in 2003--our owner is a very particular man. Since the car already had gone through a full frame off restoration, the attention this time around was on the body panels. Extensive photos show that the shell was in great condition with nothing beyond the normal chips, cracks and waves inherent in a 1960's Corvette. The bonding strips are fully intact and ALL of the body panels are original with no evidence of accidents. A brand new set of aluminum wheels replaced the original rallye wheels as the only change made to the car from factory specification. The door and hood gaps are excellent, every piece of chrome is shiny, straight and perfect and the tinted glass is beautiful. This is a stunning Corvette.
Chevrolet offered ten exterior colors and eight interior colors, and oddly there were three blue options for each. The exterior on this car is Lynndale Blue while the interior is Teal. While that might seem discordant the combination is truly stunning, and the blue/green hue of the tinted glass ties both together flawlessly.
The interior shows nearly no wear since the car has traveled under 2, 00 miles since it was installed. The seats are firm with excellent covers, the dash is straight and the trim and brightwork look new. Through the years of our ownership if anything looked dingy or out of sorts it was replaced.
During a reseal we confirmed the internal engine components, heads and more were not only correct parts but also properly date coded. The engine puffed occasionally on startup (again, our owner demands perfection of his own vehicles) so we had the heads rebuilt with new springs, seals, guides and a full valve job. Compression is even across all cylinders. We went through the original carburetors a couple times, fussed and fiddled with the entire car and it's now the nicest driving, best running solid lifter Corvette on the planet. That's not hyperbole--this car starts and runs as though it has modern electronic fuel injection on it. The original transmission is rebuilt and works flawlessly. There are no drivetrain noises of any kind.
This car is equipped with rare power brakes as well as ultra rare heavy duty brakes. The original booster was restored and the master cylinder is both date and part number correct. The correct J56 adjustable proportioning valve is in place, as are the correct calipers, brake pads and caliper stiffening brackets.
The chassis is original and bears proper markings per NCRS guidelines. Original and NOS parts were used whenever possible. Again, everything works exactly as it should with no excuses.
The 2003 paint job was nice but not perfect, so it was stripped completely to the gelcoat and repainted again in 2010 under the watchful eye of Elio Martin. It has traveled fewer than 500 miles since. The paint itself is thoroughly modern with perfectly straight panels, the black stinger buried under the miles-deep clearcoat and jambs as pristine as the exterior. It's over restored and stunning.
We also have a letter from three owners ago who cataloged his long-term ownership: This Corvette was always treated well. If you would like additional photographs or have questions, please write or call. Viewing appointments can likewise be made. This Corvette is simply one of the best examples you'll find anywhere, and it's ready to join another prominent collection.
