I believe that Al Knoch carries some of the finest reproduction interiors on the market. They are also some of the most expensive. Some of the suppoerting suppliers carry very nice interior packages for less price. I bought my interior from Johns Interiors JOHNS CORVETTE CARE at the spring Corvette Expo CORVETTE EXPO in Knoxville, Tenn. He was very reasonable and I was able to see the items 1st hand. I also received a show discount and paid no shipping.
That being said you may want to entertain looking around at some area Vette shows if possible for a deal. Either way GOOD LUCK in your search!

I'm going to the Yearone's Brasalton Bash in a few hrs. I hope to find some show offers there. I'll let ya'll know how it was and if I find any deals. I try to get some good pics.
Jamie,
I was able to buy repro interior parts from Corvette America at discounted prices through Wilcox Corvette.
I bought my upper & lower dash pads (drop shipped from Corvette America) and a complete carpet set (drop shipped from ACC) for several hunderd less than retail.
Wiicox is an E-bay store, but you can call them direct (800-588-3883), their customer service is EXCELLENT.
