Does anyone know of a source for the front e-brake mount?
should be the same 56-62.
It's a Clamp welded to the frame that the forward e-brake cable connects to.
What happened? I bought a frame and other parts and received great service.
I place an order on their website last Tuesday and received an automated email order confirmation listing shipping TBD.
Wednesday afternoon I called to make sure they recieved my order. (I ordered some additional items mostly small trinkets and a exhaust manifold. ) The lady I spoke to said "they have been busy and would get to it shortly." She went on to say "the exhaust manifold I ordered had a price increase of about $100. and they would have to check with the supplier about availability." She blamed it on "steal raw material price going up" I said ok I'll wait for your call. She implied sometime the next day. I waited untill the end of the next day with no call so I called again she had no information about the manifold so I said to cancel the manifold and ship the rest. She said ok. Fast forward to today and nothing has shipped! It should only take 10 minutes to pull my order and throw it in a box with a label.
So I don't know what's going on with them, this was my first try at ordering anything from them and I'm done!
My plan B is I have a 63 bracket I can hack up to fill the spot but I hate to ruin a part someone else might be needing.
I arrived home today to find a package on my porch with all the parts I ordered. Postage shows It was sent 2 day priority mail. I'm surprised because I received no other communication from them.
I felt bad that I recommended them and this happened, so I sent them a link to this post on Saturday. Yesterday they replied with the following.
We apologize that we did not meet Corkguy's expectations. We try to be responsive to all of our customer's requests but there are times when we are waiting on information from other sources. That being said, we should have called Corkguy and advised him that we were still waiting on information regarding the availability of the manifold.
Please understand that we try to fill orders as quickly as we can and in the sequence in which they have arrived, but that may not always be possible because of parts shortages.
A number of us have been involved with the Corvette hobby for a number of years and understand the passion that the hobby evokes. We appreciate all of our customers and realize that if not for them we would not have a chance to be involved in keeping Corvettes on the road.
Once again we apologize for not meeting Corkguy's expectations and hope that we can have another opportunity to work with him in the future.
