A Rare Find with Extensive Restoration
This 1967 Chevy Corvette Stingray Convertible, boasting VIN #194677S121534, has been under the care of the same owner since 1979. Originally finished in Silver Pearl with a Black interior and White convertible top, the car has undergone a complete frame-off restoration from 2016 to 2019, now sporting a Rally Red exterior. The meticulous restoration process has left no stone unturned, ensuring that the vehicle remains in pristine condition.
Impeccable Restoration and Upgrades
The vehicle was purchased with no engine, gas tank, or exhaust system, but all other components were intact. Documented original miles were 30,742, and it now shows 32,173 miles. During the restoration, a 454-2 High-Performance Crate Engine from Tri-Star Performance Engines was installed, featuring a Super Street Series SS750 Carburetor and a new Center Force Performance Clutch and Pressure Plate. The transmission and original 411 rear were rebuilt, and a new 168 Tooth Billet Steel Flywheel was added.
The car features a new off-road exhaust system, new brakes, calipers, brake booster, heater core, and an 18-inch electric radiator fan. The frame was thoroughly cleaned, primed, protected, and painted, ensuring its structural integrity. The interior has been completely redone with period-correct materials, including a new white Electron convertible top installed on the original restored and powder-coated frame.
Authenticity and Documentation
This Corvette Stingray comes with a comprehensive binder of documentation, available for viewing during the preview dates. The documentation includes an NCRS confirmation letter of GM data shipping, copies of shipping records, dealer order form, shipping form, and the original window sticker. The car is equipped with original reupholstered seats and tracks.
