Vette(s): 1976 Brown with Buckskin Interior. I bought her on 9/15/03 and just received it on OCT 1st 2003!! It needs interior work, and some things under the hood, but I am so excited! Just waiting for Summer of 2004 to totally show it off.
I never thought it would be this tough! |cussing| I have been pricing Ecklers and Corvette America for interior parts. Ecklers came to 1674.12 b4 tax and shipping, Corvette America came to 1536.50. |headscratch| hummmmmm now which do I go with? Do any of you have anything to say on the behalf of either company as far as pro's con's?? |haha| I did order W/S kit from Ecklers and when it got to me and I opened the box the pieces were packaged seperatly and they all had Corvette America on them!! |haha| I wonder if they work together!

Any help/advice would |rollysmile| be very helpful!
Thanks

Ecklers buys most parts and re-sells them. I would say neither. Price it from Al Knoch. Might cost more but it would be top quality. If you read the NCRS site, most posts I have seen say Al Knoch has the best fit and closest to original look.

Vette(s): 1976 l48 TT yellow
I bought door panels, seat covers, new foam, carpeting and all the other odds and ends that I needed from Wilcox (800-288-7103). My 76 is not a show car...but it is very nice! The quality of everything I got from Wilcox was very good. The people were knowledgable and fun to work with. The prices were considerably better than Eklers, Mid America etc. I buy most all I need from them...john

I have bought from Wilcox on several different items thru Ebay with no problems, prices are better that Ecklers and Corvette America as well.

Vette(s): 1972 Stingray 4spd Ontario Orange on Black Presently undergoing complete body off started 11/03 and ongoing. Restoration completed July 30, 2006
Ditto on Willcox. They are on the C3 site all the time. I almost exclusively deal with them. Good quality, good and knowledgeable to deal with, not pushy and most of all they undercut almost all the competition. Have their website from ebay on my favorites. they also have their own site which you can download from ebay. Happy hunting. |cheers|

I bought an interior kit from Corvette Central about three years ago. Most of the items were labeled Corvette America. I have been satisfied with the quality and the price. I ordered it from their booth at a car show. They gave me a $50 car show discount and paid the freight.
