I need to replace the hood insulation on our 76 vette. Does anyone know where to find the factory replacement. This is the molded type that was like the origional style.
Nobody repro's the molded insulation, and it hasn't been available from Chevrolet in many years.
The 78-79 Corvettes used a shorter version, of the same insulation pad used on 76 and 77's. GM discontinued the longer pad in the early 80's. After that, if you went to a Chevy dealer and ordered a new insulation pad for your 76, you received the shortened, 78-79 version.
right now there is a factory origonal a guy has on ebay for 299.00 and 94.00 shipping. i think it is way too high and the shipping is way too high. i offered him the asking price if he would not charge the shipping and he said no. his other items are priced too high too i think.
Unfortunately, $90 could be about right, to ship that. If I remember right, they have to go UPS Oversize 2, so UPS charges as if they weighed 70 pounds.
