Want to drive like an MVP? Bart Starr's 1967 Corvette is going up for auction

Bart Starr's Super Bowl I MVP Corvette took an interesting road from the Los Angeles Coliseum to the Indiana State Fairgrounds in Indianapolis, where the venerable sports car will be auctioned on May 19.

The green 1967 Corvette is owned by Michael Anderson of Thunder Valley Classic Cars in St. Joseph, Minn. He acquired it from another owner in the 1980s.

Mecum Auctions of Walworth, which bills itself as the world leader in selling collector cars, vintage and antique motorcycles, and Road Art, is auctioning the car on consignment.

The car had been in storage for several years and needed restoration when Anderson acquired it. He decided on a sympathetic restoration that respected the car's history.

During the restoration process, Anderson uncovered the tank sticker, clearly stating, “Courtesy Delivery: B. Starr," as well as discovering an AFL-NFL World Championship Game ink pen underneath the passenger seat.

According to Mecum, Anderson removed the body from the frame to clean and recondition the undercarriage and suspension, and replaced the body mounts, suspension rubbers, u-joints, seals and bearings. The brake system was overhauled and the calipers were upgraded with stainless-steel piston sleeves for durability.

The driveline is original: the engine has never been disassembled and retains the original gaskets and paint. A new Dewitts reproduction radiator was installed, but the original was retained to accompany the car.

The car was on display at Lambeau Field in August 2017 for the final preseason game. It was part of the kickoff of the rawhideMVP campaign, which honored the Pro Football Hall of Fame member and former Packers quarterback and his wife, Cherry, for the organization's first vehicle donation in 1968 and their long-time support. Starr raffled off the red Corvette he won as the Super Bowl II MVP to begin Rawhide's vehicle donation program.

Rawhide is a residential facility for boys in Waupaca County.
