Reliable, fast service.  Good prices.  Excellent customer service.  Ok web site.  Could use a few more pictures and better descriptions.  Excellent order communications.  Always provide tracking numbers automatically.  My only complaint is that some items are not in stock.  You will not know this until after the order is placed and they email the confirmation.

Great place to find tools for most any application.  I bought an A/C Flush Gun Kit,  a gallon of A/C Flush, and a Universal Dial Indicator.  Reliable, fast service.  Ok prices.  You'll certainly find that tool you need without searching all over town.  Excellent customer service.  Good web site.

See the photo gallery for pictures.  Excellent products.  Reliable, fast service.  Good prices.  Excellent customer service.  Good web site.  Check my photos of the installation of this product.

Just ran across them.  I haven't ordered from them but what they provide is unique and might be useful to others.  The following is from their website:  "Specializing in Automotive Wiring Harnesses and Wiring Products for the Restoration Industry.  Manufacturing automotive wiring products for 30 years."  If you check out their site, this is no exaggeration.  If you have a need for wiring and temperature sensors for your GM, Chrysler, AMC, or Jeep vehicle, this is the place.  No Fords.  Check out their excellent FAQ.  They know wiring!  Absolutely the best site I've run across for these products.

They have short headers for C3's.  Even for D Port Heads.

My favorite eBay Parts Suppliers

Too many to list every one.  Here are some reliable resellers of Vette parts:

  • acandheaterparts

  • desertapache

  • mrpriz

  • wilcox_Inc

  • 70stingray

  • vettepeople

  • noahperformance / restoration-warehouse

  • $mygarage$

  • greenwoodchevy

  • partsladi

  • corvettemack

  • fastvette00

  • wguinther

  • vetteman904

  • vettevisions

  • parts4corvettes

I also had a few negative experiences.  I learned that PayPal Buyer Protection was absolutely worthless when you run into problems with products.  It's actually seller protection.  PayPal has no value what so ever if you use it outside eBay.  Just use your credit card unless you can afford to loose the cash.

I received a few misrepresented parts.  The worst ones are documented below
