This 1967 Chevrolet Corvette is a stunning beauty.
Original in every way and it has the back history and documentation to prove it.

As you can imagine, it’s a winner of plenty of shows and events, taking first prize everywhere it goes.

This level of originality and condition will not come cheap these days, as per the price, but as you can see, this is probably as good as it gets for a 1967 Corvette.

I wonder if the proud first owner of this car had any idea that in 2015 this Corvette would be looking just as good as the date rolled out of the factory and be one of the best examples of the breed?

It does make you wonder……..
