Vette(s): 1982 C3 Collectors Edition 44000 miles, sat in the sun most of its life, My wife purchased it for me for Father's Day in 2007 from her girlfriend that had it for 19 years. It is on the road again. I'm retired but it is now my daily driver.
Welcome Dean
Tell us a little about your car and yourself.
Thanks for the welcome. I had been looking for a corvette for awhile and came across mine not far from where I live on Vancouver Island, BC. It's a 68 coupe, with the 300hp 327 and 4spd. I'm looking forward to slowly re doing it and will be looking for input from the members on where to get quality reproduction parts, especially interior pieces.
Thanks
Dean

First recommend purchase is a GM shop manual for your year of corvette. All others are not even close when it come to telling you what you want to know.
Of course the best information comes from guys on this forum.
Corvette Shop Manual This is one location. Ebay and ZIP are others I would be looking at a new reproduction version for what they want for your year corvette. For mine I purchased a used one on eBay for around $50.
Corvette Assembly Manual I like to shop where possible with companies that support the forum. Corvette America supports the forum but I do not believe they carry year specific GM Shop Manuals. Would be worth a call or an email to find out for sure.
They do carry specific assembly manual and I love the fact that you can have one on CD that is search able. I have the paper copy and will be ordering the CD now that it is available.
