Documented and authenticated as absolutely the Last "Sting Ray" (two words, all others afterward had Stingray as one word) Corvette to come off the production line in 1967.
The Last "Sting Ray" Corvette is a 1967 Corvette Coupe, 427-390 hp, 4 speed, VIN #22940. It has Silver Pearl paint with Black interior and is optioned with a L-36 427-390HP engine, factory air conditioning, side dual exhaust, power steering, telescopic steering column, 3.55 positrac axle, M-21 close ratio transmission, AM/FM radio, tinted glass, and red stripe tires. The Last "Sting Ray" Corvette (VIN #22940) was built at the St. Louis Corvette Assembly Plant on July 12th, 1967, and was delivered new to Richardson Chevrolet in Houston, Texas.
So, just how much will it go for???
I'm guessing around $1.8M. It's going today during a prime-time Barrett-Jackson no-reserve auction on the Speed Channel (

Before it was fully restored, it was bought as pretty much in basket case condition for $229,400.
p.s. - and if anyone out there is feeling pretty generous, this would be a perfect gift for my upcoming birthday!
