Adam.... my car is similar looking. Same color, also a 427 but mine is the very rare L-71 engine. Google it if you aren't familiar with that motor but it was Chevrolet's answer to Chrysler's 6-pack. Basically 3 holley 2-barrels. There was also a L-68 option which is similar looking motor with the same carbureter setup but much milder (hydraulic cam vs. solid cam, 2-bolt main block vs. mine which is 4-bolt, cast vs. forged crank, oval port heads vs. square port heads, etc. etc.). None of those might mean anything to you unless you were hot rodding back in the day. Oh yeah, mine also has both tops (soft and hard) and my hardtop is apparently quite rare as it's vinyl covered. Most were painted same color as body.

Here it is, the actual car, way back in happier and healthier days.

It's a 1967'! The last year of that body style
and I remember you saying at one time it was the
427 435bhp.tri-power model!
Those are very nice! Does it have the teak wood
telescoping/tilt wheel also?:0
I love the rare 65' with the porcupine engine
The 396 425bhp. Model!!:)

You own one hell of a car, great engine - I'm a rat motor fan since my first car, a 1965 Impala with a 396. :drool:

Hot Dang! I LOVE that body style. I just got lucky googling a pic that matched Your car's color. Such an iconic design and fabulous motor. The Rats rule in My book. Dibs on Your Vette, btw. :-D
