I have one from Penn-Ohio Corvette Specialties for a 1976-79. I ordered for a '75 but they sent the wrong one. $20 plus shipping or best offer! jeff_zettel@pittsford.monroe.edu

I kicked mine up a notch. I bought a new one and painted it gloss black but have since covered it in leather. Looks much better for the car shows. Th lighting is poor in this photo. It looks awesome with a fresh coat of leather conditioner!
