I have a chance locally to buy a restored 327/300 1964 coupe or a restored 1967 327/300 coupe. Both at $65k. Which would be the better choice? 1964 is factory red on red. 1967 is factory blue on blue.

 

Really need more info on how they're equipped to make a decision on this. Things things such as numbers matching, transmission, A/C, PS, PB, interior finish, etc.

 

I know it's opinion to a degree. But there must be differences in ride, comfort,etc. Also resale. Hope to get into a 1967 427 eventually. Neither has power steering unfortunately. No AC either. Both numbers matching with documentation. Restored back to original. Both manual with power brakes. Both vinyl interior.

 

It would be my first corvette.

 

The latest Corvette Magazine Buyer's Guide lists a show ready '64 coupe at $74,000 and a '67 show ready coupe at $135,000.

 

Thanks. That helps. 1967 is the better way to go.

 

Let us know how it turns out.

 

I just lost the 1967 $64k coupe. It sold in less than 24 hours via Facebook.

 

I guess somebody read the Corvette Magazine's buyer guide issue. Better jump on that '67 before it's gone.

 

I wouldn't let any car go today for lack of power steering. The electric conversions are cheaper to install and most importantly, do not alter the engine compartment. No new pulleys, hoses or otherwise. Hidden and relatively easy to remove if the next owner doesn't like it
