well for the first time in many yrs im going to be boatless for the summer. Today I traded my formula and one of my harley's straight up for a 67 vette convertible. I will probably start looking for a nautique or mustang over the summer for the next summer. this is going to be weird... on a brighter note my wife told me she liked the old boat better than climbing over the windshield of the formula to get to the bowline and anchor so i guess i know what we will be buying..

i will get some pics when i get it delivered. its white , brown int not my fav but i would imagine it will be the only time in my life one will present itself to me and seems to be a better investment in the long run. its a yr correct but non matching # 327 powerglide older loosely termed restoration (would that be the correct terminology Pete) its a good running very solid car that my friend has owned for yrs and has sat or been driven only a few miles a yr the poor guy is a ford fan .Bruce I also feel it is among a handful of truly desireable yrs , for me the 62 , 67 69 and newer z06 cars

Oh geez Quinner, what is wrong with you? LOL, I guess you will be a handful for JBear.
Peter I'd say that's a great trade, especially for the long haul. Is it a 327/300? |

i think the 1 millionth and the 1.5 mil th plus 6 others..
Bruce I would say it is probably . The only available original is i think the 350 hp for small blocks. it could be any number of them i think in other 67 g.m s. i had to take the deal he was asking 28 k and my investment into the formula and 02 dyna totaled 10k kind of a no brainer , plus it gives me the chance to someday own that beautiful orange barracuda in south central maine........... |

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! |

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. |

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.

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

it is probably a non original 270 hp motor but its ok , for the investment v.s condition it is a good driver. I have a 427 motor that hasnt run in yrs i suppose i could go to the effort of swapping it in but I probably never will. I cant find any reference to the 300 hp being available that yr. if i could change any one thing it would be to a black interior. I cant wait to wind that powerglide up to 60 and feel it slush into drive.

Here's a pretty good chart. 300 and 350 hp in 67. 65 was the year with many 327 options.
http://rowleycorvette.com/stats67.html I had a 327/300 with a powerglide in an F1 panel truck. You could run it to 5k in 1st, shift into 2nd it and would climb to about 5800 as it slipped into 2nd. |

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.

Beautiful looking Vette, Peter. What a score!
I was reading in Car and Driver about the classic car market and it was predicting that automatics would start bringing more money than standards because the younger generation doesn't know how to drive standards. |
