boatless

well its almost as done for this yr as its going to get , new brakes and components all around , misc electric , dark saddle converted to black interior. just tires and mufflers back to do this spring. its too quiet.

Peter,
That Vette is very cool. 1967 is the best of all of the mid year Corvettes- probably of all Corvettes. A life long dream come true, I am very happy for you.
Congratulations.

thanks Marty i'm holding out for a one way trip south from maine on a certain orange barracuda on the lend lease program

Peter,
Install a hitch on that Vette- come down here to NC- hitch up The Purple Rain and take it back for the season..

Sweet Ride

Congrats! Great looking car!

That's sexy.   Enjoy driving it!

Congrats on your new ride. She's a beauty. I'm assuming it came with the hard top as well. Post more pics when you get a chance.

my first post has a link to a very informative site with more than just the specs on the '67. Might want to check it out. Pretty cool info on there.

kytom2 wrote: I stand corrected. Wasn't there also four 427 options that year? Topping out at 435 horse I think.

Looks like there were 2 327 options with 300 & 350hp variants and 4 427 options with hp ratings of 390, 400, 430, 435. 67 Specs

1967 BASE was a 327 with 300 HP. The 327 OPTION was 350 hp, a $105.00 fee! Mine was a Marina Blue 327/350 (30% ordered) with a bright blue interior and 4 speed. The high collector is the the 427, but they all are costly.

Congrats on the Vette. Definitely post some pics. Too bad it's not the 427, but it's still a '67 Vette.

One of my favorites, but I wish I could have my uncles old '65 1/2. It was silver with a black interior convertible with a 396 425hp. The only year they put them in the Stingray. Car was a beast. He took me for a hell ride in it and we were flying at well over 140.

Unfortunately the car was wrecked. He still misses it to this day.

I bet those guys thought those Vettes were in a safe place. That's crazy.

I think you could get a '67 327 Vette anywhere from 265 hp to 375 hp.

You'll have to stop by and check out that Cuda!
