The Corvette was purchased on March 9th, 1967, by Mr. Vernon Rankin Hoover of Pasadena, Maryland, from Gladding Chevrolet, validated by a copy of the car's purchase agreement. Mr. Hoover received an $812.75 discount on the Corvette and put a $50 deposit down on his new car. Dressed in stunning Marlboro Maroon with a Black Stinger Hood and Black Leather Interior Trim, it was equipped with the L68 427/400 HP Tripower Engine, Muncie M21 Close-Ratio Transmission, G81 Positraction Rear Axle, N14 Side-Mounted Dual Exhaust, and K66 Transistorized Ignition. Mr. Hoover was ready to roam the streets in his “wolf in wolf’s clothing” new Corvette—and he did, as validated by the traffic ticket included in the sale from March 12th, 1967. After owning the Corvette for just four days, Vernon was cited for an illegal exhaust system. After contacting the dealership about this issue, he was told the Corvette had an "Off-Road Exhaust System" and that the dealership was not responsible. This triggered Mr. Hoover to write a letter to GM complaining about the illegal side exhaust after purchasing the Corvette and being overcharged for exhaust silencers by the service department. Mr. Hoover received a response from General Motors, and both letters are included in the sale. Mr. Hoover was very detail-oriented, which can be seen by the spectacular display of original documentation accompanying this Corvette, including the purchase agreement from new, the original NCRS-validated Window Sticker, the original NCRS-validated Tank Sticker, a handwritten fuel and mileage logbook, and countless receipts dating back to the 1960s and 1970s. The Corvette was purchased in 2022 by a national-level NCRS judge and received a comprehensive frame-off restoration completed in 2023. All components were restored to factory appearance and functionality. Once finished, the Corvette was ready to hit the show field on the national judging circuit. A Bloomington Gold OEM Award was achieved on January 10th, 2024, followed by an NCRS Regional Top Flight Award at the NCRS Florida Regional Meet on January 20th, 2024, with an impressive score of 99.0. From there, the car was taken to the NCRS Northeast Regional Meet in June 2024, where it passed its Performance Verification on the first try (one of the most difficult awards to achieve in the Corvette hobby). Included in the sale are all judging sheets and awards, as well as a CCAS Trim Tag Affirmation Certificate, CCAS Engine Crankcase Affirmation Certificate, NCRS-validated Tank Sticker, NCRS-validated Window Sticker, the original Certificate of Title, the letter from Mr. Hoover to GM (and their response), a mileage log and maintenance log, original service receipts, and all original books, including the owner's manual, radio manual, wheel trim ring instructions, warranty book, and Protect-O-Plate.
