Does Zip Corvette offer a forum discount?

I am not sure about forum discount, but they do have the occasional sale. Bought some stuff thru them around Christmas, and they were very easy to work with. There was no forum discount at that point. But some of the stuff was cheaper than others even with the offered discounts.

Good to hear Andy.
I'm losing my patience waiting for Willcox to answer my questions about the parts I need.

I live in somewhat close proximity to Zip Corvette. They have been a godsend and very professional. Great customer service.

I don't know about a forum discount, but if you spend enough money with them, they give you a permanent discount on everything you buy. Ask me how I know.

When I was ordering a ton of parts, they gave me a break with a quantity discount.

Where I live, if I order early it will be on my doorstep the next day with standard shipping.

I ordered a radiator for my C4 on Monday and it arrived on Thursday.

Plus they had (in stock) the factory spec replacement for a MT car. Typically you use a AT and plug the bungs and as the MT are hard to find..

Now, I have not filled the tank to fired her up (later tonight??) so I can't speak to quality.

Been ordering parts from ZIP for a few years now and haven't ever had any problems. Orders ship quickly. Never asked about a forum discount but the order amount discount is there. I think I can speak for most of us here that it takes little effort to start receiving the discount while owning these vettes.

They have always done well on my orders. I'm holding off for a Presidents' Day sale, they have had a discount in the past.

I am one of ZIP Corvettes earliest customers. I am guessing for close to 40 years now! I have had my 68 coupe for 44 1/2 years. Is that testimony enough? LOL. Lou Palfy.

I've ordered from them and never had any problems, I even make it a point to stop in when I drive down south, very easy to get to and enough room for a my 53' tractor trailer to turn around.

I buy from them in person since they're right up the road from me. They've been good to me in the 10+ years I've been buying from them.
