Good choice! The 67's about the only one that comes close.

I would take the 67. Five years from now it will be gaining value as the Z06 will be worth a third of what it is now. For a daily driver, well, that's a different story.

One you could drive and enjoy. The other you'd have to admire as non moving sculpture. The '67 would be nice to have, but the '15 could be enjoyed nearly everyday. To do so with the '67 would hurt the value.
Investment wise, the '67 is certainly a better option. Depends on what you want.

I remember the first time I drove a '67 after having owned a '92 coupe. I felt like Fred Flinstone trying to stop it. Lot to be said for modern technology.

There is another raffle called DREAM GIVEAWAY for the Children's Network where you get BOTH a Red 2015 Z06 Lingenfelter-themed automatic and a Red 1967 427/435, plus $50,000 for taxes.

Both good choices.

Tough call...and it would be great to have the choice.
The C7 Z06 would be great to drive - and very desirable since I can't order one in Canada - but I'd take the '67 big block convertible, enjoy it's driving character, and have the option to sell in the future with a good $ return for a future purchase...maybe a '17 C7 Z06 convertible.

WIN?? No brainer, take the old one which will continue to appreciate, the new one ? - depreciates as soon as you touch it and for many years to come and IF it's value comes back up, it will be many years before it does. Take the oldie
Only because I want to drive it! No garage queen.

I was thinking Z all the way but man that '67 is a stunner, truly timeless
