That was good enough to edge Jeff Sluman (70) and John Huston (71) by one stroke at Prestonwood Country Club in North Carolina.
It was Perry's 11th Champions Tour start. He also played in 13 PGA events this year, making only five cuts. His best finish there was a tie for 38th at the Viking Classic.
Defending champion Russ Cochran came in fourth, registering a 1-under 71 to end at minus-eight. Fred Couples finished one shot further back after turning in a 2-under 70.
