Default Corvette Salvage

Does anyone know of any Corvette salvage web sites,, I'm looking for a seat for my 78 .. It has the red cloth seats with red leather on the sides of the seat and back.. I was told that the replacment cover isnt made any more, so I thought I might find the whole seat somewhere from salvage.. Thanks

Probably not a supporting vendor but I'm to lazy to check. I'll PM you if this gets removed.

I have purchased a number of hard to find parts from Big City Corvettes. A great place.

You can always place an add in the C3 Parts for Sale/Wanted forum. You have nothing to loose and everything to gain.
