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 0-60mph performance against the stop watch. Many consider this to be the pinnacle of the early Corvettes as styling was free of all gimmicks and appearance tricks. The 1967 Corvette was the final iteration of the C-2 body style and was largely a carryover car from 1966, minus minor badge and trim changes which included five smaller front fender vents replacing the three larger ones of the ’66, flat finish rocker panels sans ribbing, and a new single backup light mounted above the license plate. The previous wheel covers gave way to fashionable six-inch slotted Rally wheels with bright trim rings and lug nuts concealed behind a small chrome cap. The styling team of Bob Veryzer, Peter Brock, Tony Lapine, Chuck Pohlman, and Larry Shinoda – under the guise of the notorious Bill Mitchell - was responsible for the most refined version of the 1963-1967 Corvette to-date.

Wearing a Goodwood Green exterior with white stinger over a black interior, this big block ‘Vette is a 1997 Bloomington Bronze certified survivor with just 23,764 documented miles. Judging sheets are included for inspection. It is nicely equipped with the 390-hp, 427-cid engine and four-speed manual transmission, factory air conditioning, AM-FM radio, rubber floor mats, and side exhaust. Goodyear whitewall radial tires have been fitted to enhance drivability.
