Vehicle Description
1967 Marina Blue Corvette w/Black interior L79 327/350hp 4-spd
manual transmission.Part of the fun of hunting for your next sports
car (read CORVETTE!) is trying to come up with the "perfect
mixture" of performance and comfort.� Now everyone has their idea
of the ultimate combo.� Some just want all-out performance.� So
maybe only a bare-bones Coupe with an L71 427 big block with 435hp
and close ratio 4-spd. will do it for them.� Some may want a
cruiser Convertible with a mild but highly capable 300hp small
block power steering power brakes and an automatic transmission to
get the job done.� There are some many different ways to "build"
your dream Corvette that it can be a nerve-wracking experience
trying to put together the best balance between an all-out muscle
car and a relatively comfortable driver.� Well we think the
Corvette featured here just might be a contender . . .Once owned by
renowned collector Otis Chandler this beautiful '67 was a personal
favorite of his and it's not difficult to see why.� It's in our
opinion the perfect combination of performance and comfort . . .
two things that seldom went together easily back in the good ol'
days of the '60's era muscle car. There were many engine choices in
'67.� From the base 300hp small block all the way up to the
legendary and beastly 500hp plus L88 big block.� But mixed in there
was another legend; the L79 327/350hp small block.� This engine was
powerful yet user-friendly and placed between the fenders of a '67
Convertible gave it the balance it needed to handle the curves as
well as the straights!The comfort and ease of driving was made
possible by the optional power brakes power steering power windows
and the rare factory air conditioning!� The end result gave you as
close as you could get to a perfect . . . and perfectly driveable
sports car! Other options include am/fm radio both hard and soft
tops and rally wheels with red line radial tires.� It's also
benefited from a frame-off restoration by Nabers Bros. And the
result was an almost perfect 99.8 N.C.R.S. Top Flight score! The
numbers matching engine has been totally rebuilt by Jeff Reade
renown restorer and engine builder.� Best of the Best in rare
Corvette restorations to exacting standards!�� It also happens to
be a fantastic driver!� And that's what it was built for . . . to
drive and enjoy.� And you will! Visit Corvette Mike online at
