    Duntov award '67 L-71 Coupe on BaT

    This car is arguably the finest UNRESTORED '67 L-71 on the planet... earned a Top Flight and Duntov Award at the 2018 Las Vegas national convention and another Top Flight at Palm Springs last summer.

    With only 16K miles on the odometer it spent most of its life in collections including the late drag racer Dale Armstrong and Reggie Jackson.

    The car is creating a lot of chatter on BaT, including the driving video of it being driven in a very sporting manner. The driving video was posted to You Tube a couple of weeks ago, and I started a thread on the CF with some background information and driving impressions

    The auction went live late Friday afternoon, and the high bid late yesterday afternoon was $175K. This is a ten day auction that will end on Monday, 2/28 at 11:05 PST:

    Bid for the chance to own a 1967 Chevrolet Corvette Coupe L71 427/435 4-Speed at auction with Bring a Trailer, the home of the best vintage and classic cars online. Lot #66,698.

    Did I read it right "Repainted in the 70'S". Looks like the one Steve H the L-88 guy from MN. had

      I read that in the ad as well. No idea how it can be unrestored with a full repaint? Bidding is currently at $180K wit 8 days to go.

        I don't consider a repaint as a real restoration, but I should have stated that it is unrestored other than a repaint in the seventies, and lots of detailing and TLC by the current owner.

          He is no doubt going to sell that for a lot of money.

              I love the driving video, nice double clutching on the down shifts. It's a lost art now since the modern manual cars have the rev match feature and even they have are being phased out with the DCTs.

                It would be good to know who does videos like this, maybe they could do drone shots too, that would be really neat.
