Crown Award Winner LMC is very proud to offer for sale this 1967
Chevrolet Corvette L71 Roadster The 1967 Corvette Sting Ray was the
last Corvette of the second generation, and five years of
refinements made it the best of the line. The 427/435HP L71 Sting
Ray would be the high-water mark of Corvette performance and
refinement for the C2 series of cars. Changes were modest with five
smaller front fender vents replacing the three larger ones and the
flat-finish rockers conferred a lower profile. New was a single
backup light mounted above the license plate and the previous
models' wheel covers were exchanged for the new design. Interior
alterations included revised upholstery and the handbrake moved
from beneath the dash to between the seats. The 427/435hp came
standard from the factory with the Holley triple two-barrel
carburetor arrangement called Tri-Power. The rare L71 engine
package cost the original buyer an extra $437.10 on the GM order
form. This spectacular 427/435hp roadster is finished in its
original color of Marlboro Maroon with contrasting black
convertible top, black interior and black "stinger". It is the
