what are the chances that there would be any NOS interior panels out there. after seeing how the passenger door fits ( which is moulded plastic) I would really like to get my hands on a drivers door panel like they were originally made

I'm not sure but if you have a good OEM panel, Corvette America MAY be able to rebuild it. I have a couple panels,  but they are not NOS.

Check AL Knock, they supply to most Corvette shops. They are out of Texas.

Actually the shops around here I've talked to said Al Knock has gone down hill and Corvette America is much better.

If you order interior parts from one of the other aftermarket outfits, many times your stuff comes in a Corvette America box.

That is correct,  and have experienced it myself.

I might be interested in one of the panels, or maybe both, the one i still have is just the plain standard panel for the passenger side, so need drivers for sure.  are they in really good shape
