Production # for 1967 327/350 with AC

No, not easily. If you go lets say 1965 K-66 Transistor ignition section, then you can see how many 350hp with air were made. The table even has with / without radio. We must remember the book was published in 1986 long before the computer data technology of today. In 65 they made 3674 TI cars, but only 74 had the L-79 engine, C60 air and U69 radio.

More popular than you think. An original owner of a 3 speed AIR coupe here in California told me years ago why he ordered it special. A 4 speed cost $184.90, radio $172.75 and air conditioning $412.90. So he paid only the difference of $55.25 for ''cool air''. He ordered $105.35 for the L-79 engine. The three speed was a fully syncro 1st gear, and was a no charge item. 3:55 posi gear was $42.15. TOTAL $202.75 for a neat 67 coupe with air and no radio and the 350hp engine.

Jim,
Super job interpreting the C60 option. You are right on with the total production quantities for all 5 years however, I did notice 2 small errors in your breakdowns for 1964 & 1966. In 1964 you list 138 twice (1 should be 181). I compared your quantities to official confidential option production numbers acquired years ago. Computer problems (and my lack of skill) prevented me from posting previously. If interested in any more quantities contact me.
Your 1966 breakdown number of 300 should be 399.

Thanks David. I will PM you a copy of the file. I wish I had interior color numbers by paint combo. Like 65 silver / silver coupe. Do you have those? We need to share this stuff. I don't want to take it the grave.

I know there is at least 1 67 400/Auto with AC. For a while I owned a red/white conv that was on the cover of the Vette Vues Dobbens 8th edition book with lots of pictures of it. I sold it to a guy in Canada.

Jim,
I think I might have what you are looking for. Under interior trim combinations for 1965 #426 silver 716, #427 silver (leather) 57. There is a long list of Interior trim Combinations for 1963 thru 1967. Will attempt to scan and get to you and my Desert friend. I thought the mid year guys had this stuff.

Did you sell me a rear clip for a 56 years ago & a couple of years before have a 56/57 that you parted out at BG as I remember one was there & you had a set of tools & was selling parts off the Corvette. That was the GOOD old days.

It was the snarling and barking that gave you away.

Well the clip worked out well. the 56 was Black/Red & on the cover of 2 different calendars and a picture puzzle sold by the ACD museum. I still tell people about people unbolting parts of the C-1 just like we did at the junk yards in the day. I still have a picture of that somewhere.

Loren,
I would rather be a "junkyard dog" then a "Desert Rat"!

Ken,
Old memories die hard, glad to see you were able to rescue the 56. Where is the credits??

What is my POS HP missing that causes Ken's 4 pictures to appear as a black square with an "x"? Maybe the hamster is just tired and the voltage is down.......
