Yet another..... 1967 L79 Corvette, 2 tops, 19k miles

[napa68]

You could say I'm on a streak. I took in this 67 L79 from my Dad, as he decided he could not live without the 62 340hp car I found a couple of months ago. I sourced this car from Kenny Pascoe about 5 years ago. This is a 19k mile (documented) car with what looks to be most all original paint, born with drivetrain, and most all original dated secondary components. The car is an M21 4 speed, 4.11 positraction car. Complete owner history, CCAS (Al Grenning) affirmed engine and POP, title copies, misc reciepts, NCRS Shippers Report. I've got to get cooking on this one, as I sourced yet another 67 L79 coupe (that would be the 4th I have currently)

I'll post the progress pics as I prepare this one for market. This won't need much at all. One of the few items I was in need of, was a properly dated 326 water pump, which Joe Smith had the perfect unit. That should be here today. The only other original piece that is AWOL is the fuel pump, and I just so happen to know where the right one is.

Just a couple of pics for now.......

Pictured here is the POP and original dealer invoice and glove compartment documents, all being original to the car




The car still has it's original front exhaust pipes and left muffler assembly. The right side, was replaced with an NOS unit at some point.



Beautiful original interior and the odometer today as I write this




And an overall of the engine compartment


A good original car would not be complete without an oil change sticker

Way cool! I was wondering when you were going to announce this one.

You are on the road to a 1967 L79 in every color, wouldn't that be a cool collection?

Something so simple as a virgin spare tire. I find the backside very interesting given the production date of the car. You can see where the wheel was hung for the argent application

You are definitely on a roll.
