Default MVP Corvette from '67 Super Bowl

Did anyone watch the HBO special about the first Super Bowl that was on last night? As MVP of the game, Bart Star received a 1967 Corvette Roadster. The car looked as if it was silver/black with red line tires, rally wheels, and sidepipes. Definitely a small block car, I would imagine a 350 horse due to the sidepipes. Sidepipes 300 horse cars are extremely rare. It had to be a four speed car as sidepipes could not be ordered with base motor and automatic and the 350 horse motor could only be ordered with a manual transmission.
Anyone know where that car is today? Quite a rare piece if it is around.

Bart Starr was and remains a spokesperson for The Ranch in Menomonee Falls WI. They are a non-profit organization for troubled teens that repairs donated cars. I believe he donated it to them and it is still there.

Sorry if I'm highjacking this thread; but on the subject of Super Bowl cars, I have a tape of the original NBC broadcast of Super Bowl III. On that tape it shows the 1969 Dodge Charger R/T ultimately awarded to Joe Namath as MVP. I believe it was bronze with black tail stripe. Very cool stuff.

I'd pay handsomely for a videotape of SuperBowl I.
