Default 68 single fold shifter boot ?

Hi

Corvette Central offers the 69 double fold rubber shifter boot #233035 and discontinued the 68 single fold rubber boot #233230 .

Does anybody else offer this 68 only part ?

Thanks. Gunther

Why not just use the '69 boot-my Blue '68 convertible uses it & it works fine.

I just ordered the single for my 68 last month and their discontinued today? I'd try calling them direct, usually there is a few floating about even if the website says OOS. I prefer the people at CC and thev'e done >$10K business with me.

I was under the impression that nobody reproduced them either. I just bought a '69 replacement that will work fine for now. Someone will reproduce them sometime in the future, you can bet. Either that, or I'll run across one at a meet sometime, I hope. I've seen used originals go on Ebay for stupid money.

Considering the potential market, I'm surprized the repop manufacturers haven't got the message and gotten in to the game.
