Vehicle Description


1967 Chevrolet CoFor consignment, a car that will make the hair on a Corvette

aficionados neck stand up. An L-71 Corvette, 427ci from 1967. This

is a 1, listen close, ONE owner car, and has seen 1 repaint around

20 years ago due to 5 or 6 cracks in the original lacquer paint.

This car has never been shown and never been judged so its an open

palette for the new owner. Every number is matching, and it is as

clean as they come. Low original miles with a mere 22,461 clocked

since 1967! Bought new at Klick Lewis Chevrolet in Palmyra,

Pennsylvania when the owner was a mere 20 years old, (meaning this

beast had to be registered in his parents name until he was 21),

and lovingly cared for over the years. This car is designated for

the main showroom, and will have velvet ropes strung around it, but

is definitely here for the taking, and looking but please no

touching!

Exterior

The pointy shark-like lines of this beautiful body are just well

aligned and bathed in Lynndale Blue. A stinger hood with a black

paint to highlight it is seen on the hood which rests comfortably

between the front hidden headlight portion and the creased rounded

front quarter tops. Another "crimp" if you will, is seen on the

sides running through the tops of the flattened wheel wells,

through the doors and on to the round topped rear quarters making

the straight line extend through the rear wheel well. Shiny perfect

split bumpers are in front and back and a chromed bezeled round

turn signal light is below. Side pipes with factory ribbed and

punched guards hang from either rocker and floating just above on

the front quarter are some "gills" for venting the engine. A nicely

trimmed front windshield supports a black vinyl hardtop which is

removable, as this car is also a convertible! Before we get into

that though a shout to the rear glass on the hardtop, its a

wraparound. The convertible top is in excellent condition with just

a slight tear at the seam on the bottom middle where the plastic

meets the canvas but hey, its original! This top shows in black and

has a fairly clear plastic rear window. More pointed look for the

rear deck with dual round tail lighting on either side and more

split bumpers below. 15-inch rally wheels are all around and shine

to the fullest.

Interior

Black vinyl covers the door panels and there is plenty of chrome to

go around here too with the round knob door actuator, chromed pull

bar and wing and main window cranks. Inside, perfectly presenting

black bomber style buckets with low curved backs and covered in

black vinyl frame the back of the drivers compartment. In front is

the dual curved eyebrow dash, with the drivers side sporting the

gauge cluster containing all round gauges and some pulls with a

black textured panel surrounding within the eyebrow. On the

passengers side is another eyebrow, this time housing the arched

top glove box with brushed aluminum door. In the center the dash

falls gracefully downward and in this area, we note the vertically

mounted Delco AM/FM radio, several climate control knobs and a

large chronograph clock in the center of this mid section. The

console has the handbrake, a small storage glovebox and the metal

chromed round knobbed gear shifter. Black carpeting floods the

floors and has protective carpeted Corvette badged floor mats. In

back of the buckets is another small black carpeted storage

area.

the car was repainted.
