1967 Chevrolet Corvette L88 Tribute, 427/435 HP Big Block, Tri-Power, Automatic, A/C, NCRS 98-Point Show Winner
The 1967 Chevrolet Corvette is widely regarded as one of the greatest American automobiles ever built, and this spectacular 1967 Corvette takes that legendary design to another level. Presented as an L88 Tribute and powered by a thundering 427 cubic-inch Big Block V8 with a 3x2 Tri-Power carburetor setup, this Corvette combines the unmistakable appearance of Chevrolet's ultimate performance Corvette with an outstanding color combination and impressive show history.
Finished in beautiful Code 976 Marina Blue, this Corvette absolutely commands attention. Marina Blue is one of those iconic mid-year Corvette colors that looks just as good today as it did in 1967, and it is especially striking against the factory Trim Code 450 White Vinyl interior with Blue accents.
Under the Stinger hood is the centerpiece of this Corvette: a 427 cubic-inch Big Block V8 rated at 435 horsepower and topped with the desirable 3x2 carburetor arrangement featuring three 2-barrel carburetors. Open the hood and there is no mistaking what this car is all about.
The aggressive Stinger hood gives the car the unmistakable big-block Corvette appearance, while the side-pipe exhaust provides the sound to match. Fire up the 427 and this Corvette has the deep, unmistakable exhaust note that makes a big-block mid-year Corvette such an experience.
Adding to the unusual character of this car is an automatic transmission. While most high-performance Corvette builds are associated with manual transmissions, the automatic makes this car considerably easier to cruise and enjoy while still delivering the sound, torque, and presence of a 427 Big Block.
The car is also equipped with Air Conditioning, although the A/C is currently not blowing cold, as well as an upgraded sound system for added enjoyment on the road.
One of the first things enthusiasts will notice are the wheels. This Corvette rides on very special So-Cal Speed Shop 16-inch knock-off-style wheels. They give the car an incredible period-inspired appearance while adding a subtle custom touch that separates it from the typical mid-year Corvette.

What really separates this Corvette from many tribute cars is its show pedigree. This car has achieved an impressive 98-point NCRS score and is a Blue Ribbon winner. That is a tremendous accomplishment and speaks to the level of presentation and attention this Corvette has received.
The car remains very nice today, although there are some minor paint blemishes that should be expected and are worth mentioning. They do little to take away from the overall presentation of a Corvette that has already proven itself in judged competition.
The 1967 model year was the final year of the second-generation Corvette and, for many collectors, represents the pinnacle of the Sting Ray era. Chevrolet refined the C2 design over five model years, and by 1967 the Corvette had developed into one of the most recognizable and desirable American performance cars ever produced.
Then there is the L88 legend.
Introduced for 1967, the L88 represented the extreme end of Corvette performance and was created with competition in mind. Genuine 1967 L88 Corvettes are among the rarest and most valuable Corvettes in existence. This car is presented as an L88 Tribute, allowing its next owner to enjoy much of the aggressive appearance and big-block personality associated with those legendary machines without pretending this car is something it is not.
The combination on this Corvette is simply outstanding. Marina Blue paint, White Vinyl interior with Blue accents, Stinger hood, side pipes, 427/435 HP Big Block, Tri-Power induction, So-Cal Speed Shop knock-off wheels, and an automatic transmission create a Corvette that looks spectacular sitting still and becomes even more entertaining once the engine is running.
This is a Corvette that can fill several roles. It has the presentation and history to take to a serious Corvette event, the visual impact to draw a crowd at a local car show, and the equipment to make it an enjoyable weekend cruiser.
The automatic transmission and Air Conditioning add a degree of drivability rarely associated with an L88-inspired build, while the 427 Big Block, Tri-Power setup, Stinger hood, and side pipes make sure nobody mistakes this for an ordinary Corvette.
And when you add its 98-point NCRS show-winning history and Blue Ribbon recognition, this becomes a particularly interesting example.
For the enthusiast who wants the look and attitude of one of Chevrolet's most legendary competition Corvettes combined with a beautiful Marina Blue and White color combination and a more street-friendly configuration, this 1967 Corvette L88 Tribute deserves serious consideration.
