Just looked at the New Fall 2017 Catalog and compared to prices in the Spring 2017 Catalog. This is not Zip, but another well known company Eckler's.
On almost every page, same item, same number up about 4% from the Spring Catalog. At that rate any part will be unobtainable.

If the part on the Corvette sites doesn't specifically say it's a Delco/Bosch/Whatever brand part, your box is going have something in it made by Cardone 1, Airtex, or whoever.... at a Delco/Bosch price.

As said best thing to do is buy a proper car in the first place
Unfortunately some that havent browsed forums buy a cheap one thinking "I got a cheap upholstery guy" or I can do this myself then discover the vette specific, discontinued parts and freak
I sold a 73 I had over that pre web days. Once I saw the cost of brakes, suspension redo stuff it was game over.
It was an eye opener having come from a and f bodys that were dirt cheap to fix.
