From all appearances, Jerry and Felicia Mulick's 1967 Chevrolet Corvette looks just like your typical, albeit very pristine, example of Chevy's classic performance star.
While its Marina Blue exterior screams old school, crack open the bulging hood and you'll find an engine bay full of modern mechanics and technology.
A 327-cubic-inch V-8 was bolted in at the St. Louis factory on Feb. 3, 1967, but it has been swapped out for a LS-2 V-8. This 6.0-liter small block is what powers Corvettes made from 2005 to 2007.
"It's always fun to drive somewhere and have people admire the car, but then they open the hood, which always leaves them breathless," Jerry said.
