ABOUT US
I got started purchasing parts when I bought my first 1958 base engine signet red Corvette in 1980, it was a basket case. Many
parts were missing, so I had to start hunting for parts to complete the frame off restoration. As I was scouring all the part catalogs and junkyards trying to find the correct original parts, I discover that I had to buy parts that had other parts attached. Not needing the attached parts, I would sell the extras to fund my project. Also, at that time back in the 80s there were very few GM Restoration parts dealers. Everything was original and it was hard to find the exact part I was looking for. There was no internet to search.
As the project went further, I started to buy extra parts and selling them regularly, again to fund my project (mostly through word of
mouth and at Corvette at Carlisle). Soon, I was buying extra parts from all over the United States, from California, Texas, Tennessee, Florida, New Hampshire and others. Once my 1958 Corvette was complete, I felt that selling parts would be a natural next step. I have a vast knowledge of the 1958 through 1960 years (other straight axles, too). I also gained valuable knowledge as a National Corvette Restorers Society member since 1984 If you have questions about a parts and where they fit on the Corvette please feel free to reach out. What started out as a way to help fund my first corvette restoration has grown to be a full time love.
Over the years I have owned many corvettes. However my love and passion is with C1 corvettes.
