The second-generation of the Chevrolet Corvette represented fighter jet styling and raw power. An aesthetic era that only lasted five years, we stumbled across an immaculate 1967 Corvette Stingray 427 on eBay.
The badge of Chevy prowess
With less than 59,000 original miles, this ’67 Stingray is the definitive Sunday driver. Carefully restored and meticulously detailed, this car is in great shape.
All of its hard body lines shine with excellence and its General Motors exclusive #977 Lynndale Blue paint glistens like a new car. In fact, this particular Stingray is of 1 of only 1,381 Stingrays to receive this limited-edition paint color.
Not to mention, all the numbers are matching and the vehicle history is clean and free of accidents. Equally important, the rebuilt engine and transmission are matching as well.
The only feature that is not original on this Stingray is the brand new set of aluminum wheels it received to replace the original rally wheels. The teal blue leather interior is in mint condition and all of the Stingray’s chrome styling is free of peeling.
This '67 Stingray 427 is clean inside and out. From bumper to bumper, it looks to have no imperfections.
However, its not the body that garners all the appeal. It is the beefy L71 427ci Big-Block V8 sitting under the hood, which produces 434hp and 460lb/ft torque.
This engine in the Stingray is significant in that it is fitted with three two-barrel carburetors, better known as Tri-Power. The Stingray up for sale here is 1 of only 3,754 Stingrays fitted with this specific engine.
Look at that hard body line. It accents the C2’s curves so effortlessly.
Power is put to the asphalt by an M21 close ratio four-speed manual transmission. J56 heavy duty power brakes are also installed on this Stingray, 1 of only 267 produced.
Commended by critics for its superb handling and raw power, how would anyone look passed such a legendary car? By all means, Chevrolet sure did engineer a masterpiece with this ’67 Stingray 427.
Definitely a collector’s car, the ’67 Stingray 427 is hands down a futuristic design that has withstood the test of time. With its split-window and cockpit-inspired dashboard, it is as if the driver is not sitting in a Corvette but instead an F-18 fighter jet.
