WTB 1961 - starter, radiator, tach, seat belts, windshield
I need the following for my 1961 Corvette - VIN 10867S10653 (late March ‘61) to make it correct:
starter motor - 1107889 with correct date code radiator - Harrison 3150916 with correct date code (revised number) tachometer - hi-lift cam windshield - LOF with with correct date code black seat belts - male buckle square design “235” and female U.S. PATENT 2.458.810 I live in Englewood, Florida and would prefer to deal with someone in Florida - the gulf side would be great. |
61 parts
There are a lot of starters for sale on Ebay. Also, try John Pirkle. He is well respected.
Dewitts would be the place to go for the radiator. They look exactly like the originals. |
Thanks. What I really want is to purchase used locally. I've had one bad experience already buying parts that I didn't see until I saw them so trying to avoid that again.

The radiator would be great except mine is aluminum. I'll share the info with some of the other '61 people I know and see if they need one.

If you intend on driving the car you would be well served by getting a Dewitts. If you are adamant about an original one then I'd insist on it being pressure tested. You might want to check with 'fueliedave' and 'vette gal' (she is known as 'partsqueen' on eBay) for the other parts...I think the seat belts will be the toughest thing to find. |
If I buy an original I will have it thoroughly gone over by an aluminum radiator specialist (although they seem to be hard to come by here on the Gulf side). We're actually likely going to drive to Disney for a show this fall - and that's 140 miles.

I edited the radiator number to 3150916. Was another P/N due to reference manual error.
|
I have a nice pair of spark plug covers if interested:flag:
|
I've had enough feedback that I'm going to abandon getting a true Harrison radiator. Will go with the Dewitt.
|
My "new" DeWitt radiator came today and I've recently gotten a correct starter. My biggest item is now the black seat belts for a late '61.
Someone offered me a seat of early '61 belts but said they wouldn't be correct for NCRS. As i read the judging guide the ones for serials 1-5500 look like they would be an option under 5500-10939 (they apparently lop off some digits). Does anyone know about this? |
