Default Coast Corvettes- Good or Bad?

Coast Corvette has a 1971 t-top on e-bay, no engine or tranny or interior, but has a rolling chassis (that I desperately need) and the body looks good also. Does anyone have good or bad responses about Coast Corvette from California? Also , I am pretty sure my 1972 body will fit on the 1971 frame. Any help will be appreciated.

I've purchased some new/used parts from them. They're okay to do business with. Call them and ask for Gene(if he still works there). He'll give you the straight scoop on things. I know a couple other people here locally that deal in used parts, one of them restores frames.

I got some stuff ok from them but others a while back (12 months?) were having troubles.

They're pretty good in my book. I've bought some parts from them and had them do my alignment and will probably have them do my TA rebuild when it comes time.
