Default Catalogs

Congratulations to Ecklers for sending me the El Camino catalog and Corvette America for the C1/C2 catalog. They are very nice and I enjoy the fine photography, but neither helps me in the ongoing maintenance of my 1982 CE. Hopefully you can get this corrected so your loyal customers do not bear the cost of misdirected mail.

I agree, 80% of my orders are from Paragon. I have done price comparrisons and Paragon beats most. Especially if you do the stick with Paragon Program.

Good afternoon,

I apologize about the mix up. Sometimes the catalog company computes the wrong data. If you would kindly private message me your customer number, I will have your information changed to make sure it reflects you are a C3 owner, and will mail you out a catalog.

*Note - We also have a price match guarantee program. Comparing apples to apples, if it is the same manufacturer of the part we will match or beat the price.


Thank you very much, Eckler's Family of Automotive parts.

My point wasn't that I didn't get the catalog, it was that the catalogs are expensive for the vendor to print and mail. If they are mailing the wrong catalogs, the cost has to be passed on to the consumer. Just saying...

And thanks to Eckler's for responding. I will forward my customer number!

I got the C1/C2 catalog from Corvette America also. 3 days later I got the C3 catalog. C1/C2/C3 used to be all one catalog, I'm guessing that had something to do with the mix up. Nothing I would complain about though

Why not sit in your favorite chair, sip a couple of cups of coffee, and spend a delightful Saturday morning looking through the printed catalogue.

Personally, the hard copy is much more entertaining than the on-line.

Similarly I recieved the C1/C2 catalogs from them. never did get a C3 though and that's all I ever ordered from them (C3 parts). I told my wife that since I now have the catalog, it must be a sign that I need something in the garage to match it........ She said; when hell freezes over, you have too many projects going on now." Soooooo

I showed her this

I used catalogs alot to help put my car together out of boxes. Lots of exploded views showed me what was what, and easy to use.
