1967 Corvette
Triple Diamond Award Winning 427/435hp C2 Corvette Muncie 4-Spd Well-Documented ///
Chevrolet saved its best for last in 1967, and when that meant a Tri-Power 427 rated at 435 horsepower in a lightweight C2 convertible, the result was nothing short of outrageous. This example backs that reputation with serious credentials, documented by its original Protect-O-Plate and a Triple Diamond Award earned in 2019, an honor awarded by the Muscle Car and Corvette Nationals to Corvettes that have achieved both NCRS Top Flight honors and Bloomington Gold Certification. Restored to factory specification in 1992 and refreshed in 2018 prior to judging, the car has since been shown and housed in climate-controlled collections. Finished in correct Goodwood Green with a white convertible top, it features a painted white stinger hood, side dual exhaust, and 15" Rally wheels wrapped in Toyo Extensa radial whitewall tires, presenting with a level of fit and finish consistent with its award history. Power comes from a 427ci L71 V8 with Tri-Power induction and matching partial VIN, factory rated at 435 horsepower and paired with a matching partial VIN Muncie 4-speed manual transmission and 3.70-geared Positraction rear axle, along with F41 suspension, date-coded shocks, and four-wheel disc brakes. The green vinyl interior is restored to a high standard with a matching dash and door panels, complemented by a chrome shifter, AM/FM radio, and 3-spoke wood-grain steering wheel. Supported by its Protect-O-Plate, judging sheets, and awards, this Corvette represents a highly scrutinized and carefully maintained example of an L71-powered C2 convertible.
