Default Need site for older corvettes

I just bought an 87' corvette and it's a little out of shape. Ineed to buy things for it but I can't find any good sites to purchase things for older corvettes. If you know of any sites then please answer.

I'm in the same boat. Looking for a lot of parts. Have you checked Mid America Motorworks?

I recently purchased a 86 coupe which will also be needing some parts. Your buying decision may hinge on if you want original, repro, used, etc. For example, in pricing the dash radio bezel, new GM is around $250, repro about $175, used about $75.

Come on guys! If Eckler's doesn't have it, chances are you won't ever find it.

Happy Thanksgiving, I think www, corvetteamerica.com makes most of the parts we need, then they inflate there prices so that they keep the retailers in business.
My most recent purchase was a top dash CA price for part # 4009 = $ 369.00
I went to www.riksvet.com there part # int500 cost $ 329.95
Saved $ 39.05
The part came drop shiped from CA as part # 4009.
My point! It pays to shop around. PG
