ALL COMPONENTS BORN WITH THIS CARFEATURED IN VETTE VUES MAGAZINEORIGINAL KEYS!This 1967 Corvette Convertible 427/435HP was sold new on March 24th, 1967, from Hechler Motor Co. in Highland Springs, Virginia, to Charles from Richmond, Virginia. Charles ordered this Corvette with almost every available option in 1967, making it one of the highest-optioned L71 Corvettes produced. These options are documented by the car's original Protect-O-Plate and Tank Sticker (AKA Build Sheet). Charles would remain the caretaker of this Corvette from 1967 to 1983, when he sold the car to Murphy, also of Richmond, Virginia. After a short time of ownership, the car changed hands once again in 1984, this time to Ernie of Corpus Christi, Texas (a prominent Corvette collector well-known for possessing some of the best examples of rare Corvettes). Ernie would take the L71 out on the national judging circuit, achieving two Bloomington Gold awards (1986 & 2000) and two NCRS Top Flight Awards (January 1986 & September 1986). Under Ernie's ownership, this Corvette also had the honor of being featured as the centerfold car in Vette Vues Magazine's June 1987 issue.The Corvette traded hands again in 2002, this time to Peter of St. Louis, Missouri. Peter owned this Corvette until 2005, when Leroy of Austin, Texas, purchased it. Leroy then owned the car until 2008, when Charles of Ohio purchased it. The car was then purchased by Howard of Pennsylvania. Howard would take the car back out on the judging circuit in 2011, where it earned another NCRS Top Flight Award. With only 38,622 documented original miles since new, one (exceptional) repaint, and a completely original interior, this is one of the best examples of a 1967 Corvette Convertible available today.Included in the sale are two binders of documents, including the original Protect-O-Plate and warranty book, original Tank Sticker, all original books, all NCRS Awards and judging sheets, Bloomington Gold Awards and judging sheets, previous state inspections, and various insurance cards and receipts. * SHOWN WITH RALLY WHEELS $259,000 OPTIONAL BOLT-ON ALUMINUM NOT INCLUDED IN THE SALE PRICE
