Since their genesis, they have been stunning automobiles to look at, equipped with robust V8 engines, and rear wheel drive which is the recipe for many great sports cars. It’s coming about was actually not even intentional in terms of being a production c...ar. GM had built the Corvette as a show car for the Motorama display at the 1953 New York Auto Show. However, it caused such a strong reaction from the public, that GM decided to induct it into their production line and thus the Corvette was born.There have been many variants of the Corvette produced since 1953 but we are going to focus on the second generation, referred to as the C2 (1963-1967). With this new generation of Corvettes also came the “Sting-Ray” name, featuring fiberglass body panels, a sharpened exterior design, and a smaller wheel base. In 1965, GM upgraded the brakes to four-wheel discs, added three side vents to the front fenders, made side exhaust pipes an option, and introduced a series of new power plants. Essentially, there was the 327 Small-Block, and 396 and 427 Big-Blocks which you could equip with different carburetor and fuel system set-ups. The most desirable power plant being the 427 which brings us to this example.On offer is a 1967 Corvette Stingray Convertible, chassis number 194677S101010, engine number T0909LL7101010, sporting a well-kept older restoration that was reported to have totaled $108,000 in costs. The restoration was completed in Ontario, Canada where the car was enjoyed for a portion of its life, by the then owner and restorer. Based on the photo log of the entire restoration process, it appears he began restoring the car in 1999 and finished sometime in 2000, making it a 17-year-old restoration. This example is currently finished in Rally Red with a black stinger stripe, white convertible top, and black interior. Though it is reported to be a GM Canada delivered example originally finished in Goodwood Green.The Rally Red paint has fared well over the years, managing to be spared from any fading, serious chipping, or deep scratches. The finish is consistent throughout the body and still has a nice shine. There is some mild swirling to be noted, generally concentrated on the hood, tops of the fenders, and rear deck. It warrants a professional buffing and detailing but would be absolutely stunning afterwards and is still very presentable as it is. A close inspection of the remainder of the exterior of this example will conclude a few small paint chips in the nooks and crannies, along panel seams, and surrounding emblems, key holes, and other trim items. This is consistent with an older restoration but there is a strong sense of consistency throughout the car. No areas seem to have ever been severely damaged, touched up, or poorly addressed during the restoration. Even so, this example has aged very well, the chrome lacking any notable pitting, Rally wheels showing well, sitting on a set of fresh Michelin redline tires, and white soft top in good shape. The clear rear plastic window does have some light scratches. The top itself is more of an “off-white” now due to the typical progression of aging.The black leather interior of this example has developed a welcomed patina, all finishes having been well maintained and received no mistreatment over the years. The door jams are presentable, some hairline cracks in the paint have immerged, and chip at the top corner of the driver side jam, but nothing severe. The seats have some patina but lack any concerning blemishes (tears, punctures, broken bolsters, fading). Inspecting the dash, there is nothing to note as far as flaws. All the gauges show well and are operable with the exception of the engine temperature gauge. Either of the door panels are flawless and in rugs impeccable condition.The engine compartment is tidy and cleanly, lacking any corrosion or distasteful componentry. There are some incorrect clamps and hoses which could easily be swapped for the correct units. The engine block is painted the correct orange and has held up well, not showing any significant peeling or chipping. These examples were not equipped with rear trunks as that space was used for housing the fuel tank. The undercarriage shows consistently with what one would expect with a nice older restoration. Some of the finishes have begun to fail, the black paint flaking in areas. Many of the exposed metal bolt heads have developed some light oxidation. All suspension components seem to be in good working order, no evidence of damage or serious rust, and frame showing straight down the length of the car.Mechanically, all systems are completely functional with no known repairs to report. This example has recently received a new starter motor as well as had the carburetors removed, cleaned, and adjusted by the specialists at Leading Edge Autosport of Westchester, Pennsylvania. A turn of the key and the 7.0L V8 engine fires instantly, letting out an addictive bark from the side exhaust pipe. The engine idles without issue. The manual 4-speed transmission has a throw that takes some getting used to but shifts without issue. The clutch operates as it should, displaying so signs of serious wear or need for adjustment. The disc brakes have plenty of bite, engaging smoothly. The engine produces proper oil pressure and holds a steady operating temperature. All in all, this example drives very well, giving the user the genuine Corvette experience.Sporting a nicely preserved older restoration, mechanically sorted, and configured with the desirable 427/390 engine, side exhaust pipes, and manual 4-speed transmission, this is a superb C2 Stingray to take into ownership. It is an example that will be appreciated by many and desired by most. Being that it is a 1967, it also makes it one of the last of the C2 Corvettes ever built as 67’ was the last year of production. Offered with the sale is a period Corvette shop manual, original brochure, books, jack, and period restoration pictures.
