Does anyone know where I might be able to find a replacement upper rad support with out a new radiator, and fans for a 93?

'90 to end of production are all the same. There was a minor change I believe in the top right that doesn't affect the fit from year to year and can be modified if it appears somewhat different.

If you were to shop eBay maybe the OE # 10265847 might help. I would think there would be no issues finding one maybe even "local"!

Nothing local yet. I need to replace it as the PO cut a hole in it for the air filter, and also cut apart the filter housing to use the hole he cut in the support.

I might have one laying around in a pile of 91 parts I have in the back yard. Sent two sets of battery covers to a member with a 92 and they fit so no reason to think this is from a different year. Try your other sources first tho.

My only local source always tells me they don't have anything for a C4 over the phone, but in person they have a lot. I wont be able to drive there in person for at least a few weeks.

Nothing local. The somewhat local place that claims to Recycle Corvettes will not answer the phone or return email, but that does not surprise me. Looks like I will have to just give in and buy a new radiator and dual fan assembly to get the piece I need. That or not fix it.

PS
They now have the part listed on their site but it is in no way worth the $500 they are asking for it.
