Market commentary

The first year for the 427 Corvette, Chevy failed to see the revenue opportunity from a 3x2 intake and rated the 4-barrel 450hp, then reduced it to 425hp soon after introduction while doing nothing to the engine. Big, lusty engines, they're arguably better and more driveable than their Tri-Power '67 successors but this is all the money for one in this condition. All the money. It sold at Barrett-Jackson Palm Beach in 2005 for $72,360.
