Re: 1967 Big Tank L-88 Corvette
i was at the rm auction in arizona 2007 and they had a 67 l88 there. i believe it was originally raced by lorenzo? it was fully restored with born with mechanicals and i believe it sold for 1.4 million. imop i feel the 67 l88 was the epitome of chevy performance. last year of the sexiest bodystyle and first year of the screaming l88. i would keep that l88 in your hands!

Re: 1967 Big Tank L-88 Corvette
I agree. A large tank L88 coupe would be a keeper.

Re: 1967 Big Tank L-88 Corvette
A car of this caliber is only as good as it's documentation and it's acceptance as real by the Corvette community. A real Big Tank L88 however would be priceless and my own estimite would be $4m plus.

Re: 1967 Big Tank L-88 Corvette
Well, I know a little about these Big-Tank Mid-years. My father had a 1963 Z06 Split Window with the Fuel Injection, Big Brakes and 36-Gallon gas tank. I know they only made two (2!) '67 Tankers. One is a well-known White/Blue interior coupe with the 327/350HP L-79 engine and I can't remember if the second '67 has ever been accounted for. If you really do have this car with documentation, you probably have the most desirable and most valuable Corvette on the planet Earth (except fot the '63 Grand Sports). 1967 L-88's are million-dollar cars are yours would be the only one with the 36-Gallon gas tank. I'm begging you to PLEASE post pictures.

OF THE 20 CARS MADE, ONE L-88 CAR IS UNACCOUNTED FOR. ARE YOUR LAST 2 VIN DIGETS 36 ? I HAVE HEARD THERE ARE THREE BIG TANK 67 CARS. THE RED / WHITE / BLUE DANA CHEVROLET LE MANS RACE CAR, A WHITE WITH BLUE INTERIOR, AND THE BLUE CAR YOU REFER TO ABOVE THAT HAS APPEARED AT BLOOMINGTON GOLD SEVERAL TIMES. THIS L-88 MAY BE THE 4TH. THE 67 LEMANS CAR IS FOR SALE SINCE LAST AUGUST. AND I BELIEVE IT IS THE HOLY GRAIL OF 67 L-88'S. PRICE IS IN THE 2.5 TO 3.5M RANGE. HAPPY TO HELP IF I CAN IT WILL TAKE A SPECIAL PERSON TO BUY THE CAR. JIM GESSNER
