This 1967 Chevrolet Corvette convertible is a 435-horsepower, four-speed example that was refurbished in 1985 and went on to earn a Bloomington Gold certification in June of that year. It was purchased by its current owner in 1988 and is accompanied by purchase documentation, a build sheet, and judging sheet. Finished in red over red vinyl, the car features a black convertible soft top, 15″ turbine-style wheels, four-wheel disc brakes, side-exit exhaust pipes, a cabin heater, an AM/FM radio, chrome bumpers, and retractable headlights. This C2 is now offered with a Protect-O-Plate, a tank sticker, a spare fuel tank, the owner’s manual, service records, awards, and a clean Georgia title in the seller’s name.

The fiberglass body left the factory finished in Rally Red and it was repainted during the refurbishment. Features include a removable hardtop, a black convertible soft top, a black-striped stinger hood, retractable headlights, chrome split bumperettes, fender vents, a driver-side mirror, and a side-exit exhaust system with heat shields.

The turbine-style 15″ wheels are mounted with Red Line tires measuring 15. The car features a fully independent suspension, with upper and lower control arms at the front and a three-link setup with a transverse leaf spring at the rear. Braking is handled by four-wheel discs.

The cabin features two bucket seats upholstered in red vinyl as well as color-coordinated door panels and carpets. Amenities include a heater, a vertical push-button AM/FM radio, an analog clock, and lap belts.

The three-spoke steering wheel frames a 160-mph speedometer, a tachometer with a 6,500-rpm redline, and auxiliary gauges for fuel level, amperage, oil pressure, and coolant temperature. The five-digit odometer shows 48k miles.

The 427ci L71 V8 is equipped with three two-barrel carburetors and was factory rated at 435 horsepower and 460 lb-ft of torque.

The engine stamping is shown above. The JE suffix corresponds with a 435-horsepower, 427ci L71 V8 for use with a manual transmission.

Power is sent to the rear wheels through a four-speed manual transmission.
