Re: How many 67 Lynndale with white interior

Best guesstimate is to equally spread the number of Lynndale cars (1,381 (6.02%)) across the three standard interior color choices available. This would be roughly 460 cars for each interior. This is just a guess since we don't know buyer color preferences of the time in which, for example, the teal interior may have been much more popular than black or black/white. Or perhaps black/white was most popular. There's no way to get a better guesstimate than apportion the total production across all available choices.

Now, because 37% of production were coupes and 63% were convertibles, you could further extrapolate that, of the ~460 Lynndale with b&w interiors, about 170 were coupes and 290 were convertibles. This method is a slippery slope to end up with a calculation that is impossible to believe. Both of my cars are extreme rarities with my '72 not having been made at all because the final figure after calculating percentages of all options is less than 1.

Just out of curiosity I put together a basic exterior/interior combination spreadsheet for generalized quantities. Of course, the more interior choices for a specific color the lower the calculated number of units with that combo. (The same caveat concerning purchasing trends mentioned above applies.)

1431 of all 67 production got white and black interiors

Thank you gents; much appreciated. DK

1431 of all 67 production got white and black interiors

So of the 22,940 overall production, only 6.2% had the b/w interior. Applying this percentage to the quantity of Lynndale cars would equate to about 86 cars. Again we're up against the unknown of how weighted an exterior color is on interior color choice.

Keith, Do you have the production figures for all interior colors?

Re: How many 67 Lynndale with white interior

For all these how many with X, Y, and Z option combinations were built the best and only estimate you can make is to multiply all the decimal fractions of each choice together. The raw data on total production and option production are in the NCRS Spec Guides.

Given the relatively low Corvette production and increasing options over the years many may find their car may have few duplicates for whatever that's worth unless on or more of those options is both desirable and rare.

...and using Owen's "even extrapolation" method across all '67 455 interior / exterior paint combinations (no other options taken into account), you get something like this…rounded off, that is

Awesome ! Thank you guys.

Re: How many 67 Lynndale with white interior

Hello to all; Since GM didn’t tabulate the exact numbers… can anyone guesstimate the number of Lynndale 67’s with the white and black interior ?
Thanks in advance

Dave, looks like you are getting the same answers you got when you asked 16 Years ago!

Indeed Ralph ! Want to get back into one soon….hence the NCRS disease is acting up again in my mind !

Very Cool

Re: How many 67 Lynndale with white interior

Agreed on about 86 cars, about 54 convertibles and 32 coupes. Typically black interior has the highest percentage, followed by teal, than a 2 tone interior.

quantity produced; spread across (prorata) all the allowable exterior colors for that interior color. That number is then divided by 22,940 (total '67 units produced) to give a speculated percent estimate of what that combination may have represented for model year 1967.
