If one were to go on line to a Corvette Salv. yard to find a C4 part that seems to be difficult to find from members on the Forum, any suggestions? THanks Donf

Dino is good to deal with, prices and availability generally is good, but some stuff I've called for they priced higher than new stuff!

CentralCoaster, some of the stuff he has is a little overpriced.

Unfortunately most of the hard to find parts can not be found at the junkyards either.

I know for a fact that Contemporary Corvette has no fuel reset buttons for your DIC because I looked at every single car he has. Thankfully I don't need one, but every time I go, I look.
