Chevrolet’s advertising agency, Campbell-Ewald, cleverly advertised the 1967 Corvette as “A Wolf in Wolf’s Clothing” as well as “A Good Second-Hand Car,” referring to the Corvette’s 0- to 60-mph performance against the stop watch. Long considered to be the pinnacle evolution of the iconic Sting Ray, the 1967 model was the last of the C2 Corvettes. The styling team of Peter Brock, Bob Veryzer, Tony Lapine, Chuck Pohlman and Larry Shinoda, under the direction of Bill Mitchell, was responsible for notable refinements such as flat finish rocker panels sans ribbing, a new single backup light mounted above the license plate and distinctive six-inch slotted ‘Rally Wheels.’

In 1967 Chevrolet created one of the most sought after collectable Corvettes. This spectacular 427/437 coupe, is finished in like-new condition with Rally Red paint and a black “stinger” big-block hood, which is synonymous with this production year. It comes supplied with a Tri-power 427-cid, 435-hp V-8 engine with dual side-exhaust pipes carrying the deep rumble of the engine. The car has a four-speed manual transmission, four-wheel independent suspension and disc brakes. The interior is tailored with black contour bucket seats, radio, clock and center console.

Chevrolet produced 22,940 Corvettes this model year, only 3,754 were equipped with the 427/435 option. The car was purchased in 2009, and still presents in top condition. It has been kept in a dry and heated garage. It is a member of the NCRS chapter of Quebec, Canada and is ready for NCRS certification.
