It is a late July built car formerly owned by Max Raffaele who is a member here. Owned now (last I knew) by Jim at Heartbeat City who had it listed for sale north of $200K.

1967Z28 06-12-2021 03:06 PM

Was Warren Heaps the guy who bought it new?

Ralph Spears 06-12-2021 03:28 PM

Warren Heaps bought it new

1967Z28 06-12-2021 03:35 PM

Thanks, Ralph. Was Warren from Brockton or somewhere else? I'll add the info to the registry.

The car was in Ayer, MA in 2004 when Max bought it.

Ralph Spears 06-12-2021 05:40 PM

I can't find a report for it so I may have been told the dealer name by Max.

Maybe Max will see this thread or you can inquire at HBC. You or your friend can also run the VIN through NCRS.

Ralph Spears 06-12-2021 09:29 PM

We do not know the VIN

1967Z28 06-12-2021 09:31 PM

It is shown above on the HBC website. 124377N254352

Ralph Spears 06-12-2021 09:41 PM

My friend has a picture of the car at New England Dragway in 1967 with a trophy on the hood. Also he said the clutch blew up on it one time at NE Dragway

1967Z28 06-12-2021 09:43 PM

If you can post any old-time pics of the car, many here would enjoy seeing them.

Ralph Spears 06-12-2021 09:53 PM

My friend does not have a computer i am going to meet up with him ASAP to get a copy of the photos he has.

Ralph Spears 06-12-2021 09:53 PM

How can we find out who has the car now ?

1967Z28 06-12-2021 10:33 PM

Sounds great! Thanks, Ralph.

Ralph Spears 06-12-2021 10:50 PM

Who owns the car now ?

1967Z28 06-13-2021 12:25 AM

Call Jim at Heartbeat City, explain why you are wanting to know, and maybe he will tell you. The phone number is (586) 226-8811

Ralph Spears 06-13-2021 01:22 PM

Who restored it to what it is today

1967Z28 06-13-2021 03:07 PM

Max did not live in Ayer, MA. He bought it from a guy who lived there. I'll send you a PM.

My friend that knew the first owner said the clutch blew up in 1967 at New England Dragway and it damaged the sub frame. He said the driver shifted from second back into first instead of third gear. I am still waiting for the photos from him.

I just got a couple of photos from Ralph Spears. This first photo shows Ralph's friend Richard Ingals. Richard drove the car at the drag strip for original owner Warren Heaps, and also worked on it too. The second photo shows all the trophies that the car won at New England Dragway when the car was new.

Ralph Spears 07-13-2021 10:45 AM

Looks like a no radio car i do not see an antenna on the front fender

1967Z28 07-13-2021 01:14 PM

Evidently a later owner added a radio. I do see the rare factory shoulder belts in the original photos that do match up with the car Max owned.

Ralph Spears 07-13-2021 01:32 PM

He has another picture while he was adjusting the valves i am waiting for it to be sent to me. He also said when he went to the dealer the car was in the showroom he did not order the car. He bought it off the showroom floor
