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.

KEVIN AND I CAN OFFER COMMENTS. 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.
