Default Group Purchase - VBP Performance Plus kit - Deadline: Oct. 31

Most of you have seen the thread about the group purchase for VBP's Performance Plus suspension (page 9 of their catalog and http://www.VBandP.com ). However, I know some of you didn't have the funds right away, and we also have new people joining on a daily basis.

VBP has decided to continue the group purchase discount until Oct. 31 so there is still time to get in on this deal if you want. Prices are $1700 for the 63-79 kit and $1900 for the 80-82 kit. This is a discount of $300 on the normal price of the kit.

To order, go to VBP's website and then to online shopping, and then page 9. The kit is at the bottom of the page. When ordering, be sure to go to the special instructions section of the form and put attn: Brian and then list your forum name, year of car and that you would like the group purchase discount. If you are having problems ordering online, you can call VBP (1-800-237-9991) and ask for Brian. This discount will only be valid until Oct. 31, 2002.

If you have questions, first skim through the original thread, http://forums.corvetteforum.com/zerothread?id=380794 but if you don't find the answer, IM Brian (forum ID is VBP) or post here in this thread. :cheers:

I would love one of these kits, but the frieght would more than double the cost, let alone the $ exchange rate!
Oh well, one day..... :(

I can't find it.
Can't find what? The kit in the catalog? Or something else? As for finding the kit in the online catalog, you'll need to go to "Shop Online", then at the bottom of the new page, select "Shop Now", then select the number "9" at the top of the page. The kit will be at the bottom of page 9.

Ah, I see it now. Missed the shop now. It looks like just what I'd want, but I can't afford it. :( I think I'll just have to put poly on all four corners and a new fiberglass leaf instead.

It is being shipped directly to the location desired by the purchaser. :yesnod: If you're going to buy one, now is the time. Can't beat $300 lower than normal. :)

We're not going to the Knoxville fall show anymore, it just wasn't big enough to truck the displays and to pay for two airline tickets round trip. We are still doing the Spring show though. Our next show is Chicago the weekend of Nov 23rd. :seeya

I think this is all VBP was offering a discount on for now. Of course, tomorrow is the last day for this. They may set something else up in the future, but I wouldn't have the slightest idea as to what or when.
