Information On The 1967 Corvette
Some folks consider the 1967 Corvette one of the best automobiles that was ever manufactured. This 1967 model year was a second-generation representative of the Chevrolet Corvettes. By it being called the Sting Ray, just about the most commonplace mistakes that folks make is confusing it with the C3 or third-generation Corvette Stingray which happened to run from 1968 to 1982. It’s undeniably different. Second generation Corvettes have an aura about them that any time you experience it, you’ll never forget it.
Many of the modifications that occurred from 1966 to the 1967 model year were fairly modest things like flat finish rockers sans ribbing, factory six inch rally wheels with very small chromed out beauty hubcaps, a brand new single backup light located above the license plate, and the handbrake was also moved from underneath the dash panel to between the seats. The RPO L71 had exceptional aluminum heads.
Its front suspension had independent upper or lower A arms, anti-roll bar, tubular hydraulic shock absorbers, and cool springs. The rear suspension featured fixed differential, radius rods, tubular hydraulic shock absorbers, lateral struts, in an extra antiroll bar came with 1967s that had a big block engine.
The original color options of the 1967 Corvette included Ermine White, Marina blue, Sun fire yellow, Rally red, Goodwood green, Silver Pearl, Lynndale blue, Marboro maroon, Elkhart blue, and Tuxedo Black.
The L88 had several options that were mandatory by Chevrolet include transistorized ignition, positrain, power brakes, and a heavy-duty suspension system. You might not believe this, but only 20 of these cars were sold new in 1967. You have to believe that those people were the ones that love power. Heck, they were only $1500 over the base price, however they are extremely expensive and rare cars on today’s market.
The year of 1967 was the year in which Corvette’s sales drop by 5000 units, due to a new redesign that was coming out. However, the 67 Corvette is considered one of the quintessential collector cars of all time. Its impact on the car collecting world has been tremendous.
