That car is still being raced today, just not in the same class, but by a friend of the original owner. The man who raced it back then is known here as "Pvt. Parts".
There's a "companion" to it, a black one owned by Tony Rhodes Sr., that has been parked since the two of them were taken out of Super Stock. Two of the nastiest Super Stock Corvettes around.

Nope. The black one belongs to Tony Rhodes, right here in Murfreesboro TN. His son, Tony Jr, drives a Chevy II. Tony Sr. parked the car when they took the 67 L-88 out of the guide.

Alan, thanks for the clarification, it has been a while! LOL....You said it was black did it have some anodized wheels on it? I saw it from afar and it looked great! I bet if it is not back in the books someone could push to have it reinstated. Do you have any pictures of the car?

Pictures of Tony's car have been posted here before. I don't have any. I doubt we'll see the 67 L-88 back in the books. While the new rules technically allow it, since you don't have to actually build ANY cars, and they actually built at least 36 of them, I doubt they'll ever let the 67 L-88 back in..
