Kudos to Corvette Central
Had a leaky A/C hose on my 82CE so I stopped at the local parts store and ordered a new set. Picked them up the next day (so far so good) and proceeded to install them. Quickly found that the hose that attaches to the condenser kinked when you made the "U" bend coming through the radiator support. Called Corvette Central and talked to their tech desk about their hoses. Was informed that many of the local parts store hoses were of a lesser wall thickness and would kink. Ordered the hoses on the phone, they price matched Ecklers, and shipped them overnight. Installed perfectly, much better quality part and a great experience with CC.

Also had great sucess with CC in the past year and 1/2 in restoring my 71
I like the no shipping charges they offer as I usually go over the minumum, just placed my order again with their Fathers Day special no shipping.
Fast emails from their customer service reps. I wish our order desk was as efficient
Keep up the good work CC
