We at Damp;M Motorsports are priveleged to offer one of the 3,754 real 435s built in 1967.

In addition the numbers and dates are correct from the factory Holley carburetors to the original GM oil pan. Nothing was overlooked in the restoration of this rare automobile. Body off restored in the Spring of 1993 and National Corvette Restorers Society Top Flighted on August 19th, 1993 in Bend, Oregon at a Regional Judging Meet. In 2005, the owner treated this rare Corvette to another ground up restoration courtesy of veteran restorer Cary Kuczkowski of Damp;M Corvette in Downers Grove, IL, the youngest recipient of the exclusive NCRS Duntov award, and added a complete set of five original N89 Cast Aluminum Bolt On Wheels and correct Red Stripe Bias Ply Tires.

No detail was overlooked and this midyear was prepared for future Bloomington Gold and NCRS judging events. Provenance is key to any high end collectible Corvette. This 1967 Corvette retains its original tank sticker documenting every single option and expected date of production of 10-21-1966.

Chevrolet built only 3,754 435 horse Corvettes in 1967. 1967 was, is, and always will be the year to collect. A real motor, Top Flighted, documented, well optioned, body off restored is a must for any collection. Its rare for a real one to come to market. Seize the opportunity.nbsp;
