67 Corvette Intorduction
The second generation, or mid-year, was designed by Larry Shinoda with major inspiration from a previous unproduced design called the "Q Corvette" by Peter Brock and Chuck Pohlmann, and under the styling direction of Bill Mitchell, started in 1963 and ended in 1967. Introducing a new name, Corvette Sting Ray, the 1963 model year Corvette was the first year for a coupé with its distinctive split rear window and non-functioning hood vents as well as an independent rear suspension. The split rear window was discontinued in 1964 due to safety concerns. Because they made the design too busy, the hood vents were also cut. Power for 1963 was at 360 hp (268 kW) hitting 375 hp (280 kW) in 1964.
Four-wheel disc brakes were introduced in 1965, as was a "big block" engine option (the 396 CID [6.5 L] V8). Side exhaust pipes became optional on the 1965 Sting Ray and persisted through 1967, then again for 1969. Chevrolet would up the ante in 1966 with the introduction of an even larger 427 CID (7 L) version, creating what would be one of the most collectible Corvettes ever. 1967 saw an L-88 version of the 427 introduced, which was rated at 430 hp (321 kW), but unofficial estimates place the actual output at 550 hp (410 kW) or more. Only twenty such engines were placed in the 1967 Corvette, and the cars can fetch US$1,000,000 or more in auction today. From 1967 to 1969, the 1282 cu ft/min Holley triple two-barrel carburetor, or Tri-Power, was available on the 427. The 1967 Corvette originally was going to be the first of the C3 generation; however, due to delays the C3 had to be put off until 1968. This was also the first year to introduce the L-88 motor option with 560 bhp (420 kW). Other early options available on the C2 included an AM-FM radio (mid 1963), air conditioning (1963), a telescopic steering wheel (1965) and headrests, presumably to prevent whiplash (1966).

Answer: You can pretty much rule out '67-'72 in any condition in the $3,000 range. '73-'76 may be possible, but it will need a lot of work for that price.

Question: How do I raise my existing hood scoop for more clearance.?
I have a 1980 Camaro steel hood with approximately a 16" OD hole cut in it for the breather to come up through.
On top of this is a '67 Corvette 427 fiberglass hood scoop to provide some additional clearance.
I just bought a 2" carb spacer, and now I lack about 1/2"-3/4" for the breather to clear the top of the hood scoop when the hood is closed.
The scoop is only screwed on right now, but I am going to rivet and bond it later.
Answer: go to your local auto parts store and buy some fiberglass sheets and some resin. remove the scoop and cut it in halfand add as much space as needed with the fiber glass and resin,after it sets sand it and put a thin coat of body filler on the inside and outside to add support and to make it paintable.

Question: How much 1967 stingray corvette parts?
I am wanting to sell the front end of my 1967 stingray corvette. how much is a good selling price for a used 1?
Answer: auction it on ebay. let the marketplace set the price.
Question: I am having a problem with my 1967 Corvette Stingray's headlights, one is always dim, any suggestions?
Ive checked the fuses and connections and the the driver's side headlight is dim, but the passenger side is at full brightness. Just wondering if anyone knows how this could be fixed because I'm about 90% sure its not the lamps themselves, and think it might be a connection problem.
Answer: Well, first off, if i was 90% sure it wasn't the light itself, You might as well buy a new one and make it 100%, before you start chasing around wiring that may or may not be the problem.
If it's not the light... then follow the wiring back, like the other answerer said, it's probably a bad ground.
Question: What should the oil pressure be on a 1967 corvette 427 motor?
Answer: 30 to 50 when over idle speed 10 to 20 at idle. the old rule of thumb is 10 lbs per 1000 rpm.
