corvette america supplies 80% of the interiors you see out there. they are the largest remanufactures of corvette interiors in the world. Ecklers, corvette central, and wilcox are some of there biggest customers. I am a dealer for them as well. I am also a dealer for al knoch. If i had to pick between the 2, i would suggest you use corvette america interior. Al knoch is not the company they used to be for quality. Corvette america has a very nice product. Just my 2 cents.

Willcox. I have dealt with the majors, and have had the most reliable communications and professionalism from Willcox. At least you do not get a clerk on the phone.
I just sent my power steering valve and cylinder to them for repair. They only do GM valves because of the way it is manufactured originally.
They have stayed in touch the whole time, and turnaround time is one day after they receive.
Their leather seats prices are the best I have seen, and all is guaranteed.
For the best calipers, I have dealt with Precision Engineering in Wellington, FL. They are C-3 experts and re-builders. |saluteflag| |saluteflag|

I bought my door panels from Ebay. They were new, and were from Corvette America. I am really satisfied with them, but I'm sure others are good also. I haven't had any problems with any parts I have ordered from the "big" corvette stores. I usually do price checks and order from the place that I feel will meet my needs the best. |saluteflag|

I was looking at some 78-82 CORVETTE SEATS from vetteman, off e-bay for $1069. These are the complete seat with frames and tracks and are all new leather.

Anyone have any experience with vetteman, and is that a good price for complete seats?

One more story. Ordered a set of aluminum wheels from Corvette Central a year ago. Wheels, center caps, logo stick-ons for the center caps and chrome lugs in a package for $999. Arranged for pick-up at the Chevy Vette Fest in Chicago. Got to the show and was told that, unfortunately, my wheels weren't available but that they would ship them directly to my home at no charge. Two UPS packages arrived about 10 days later -- with Corvette America return tags! Priced the same items in the Corvette America catalogue: $1399 plus shipping. Guess it pays to shop around no matter what your looking to get.

I've bought interior pieces from Wilcox via their Ebay auctions. I've also bought pieces from Virginia Vettes.

Vette(s): 1975 C3 Red, T-Tops, Black Interior. All I need is time and money! Getting there!
Virgina Vettes is who I bought my C3 from, Dick Barron. Nice guy, easy to deal with. Went through E-Bay. I bought a project so I'm sure I will do more business with him.
