Hey Vic Yeah sorry about that, read it again and amended answer. Bit slow tonight, again thanks for the help. :beer

Thanks Vic Yeah saw this type too, but as any Murphy's Law situation, had already bought the entire gear!!!! Will give that idea some thought though! Thanks again :beer

Thanks Bob Point taken!!!!!!! :beer

Gee's you guys are lucky! I paid $13.5k for mine, and that was by directly importing it. Will have to spend $ 3 - 5k to get it relatively good. The "average" C3 here is between $ 25 - 45k for plastic bumper and $35 - 70k for chrome bumper, ranges depend on condition. To give you a recent...

Cheers Bob :beer That little bit of info made the procedure very clear! Now all I have to do is not balls up the process part ;LOL ;LOL ;LOL Thanks Again! :beer

Hey Copdogcorvettes (Gary) Thanks for the tip and offer. I had been to Corvette Central, & Ecklers, & Davies, & Arts, & Tracey's, & Corvette America and Mid Motorworks, and they all seem to only have listings for Lap belts. :confused In this case, I (unfortunately) need the OEM Lap &...

Wanted: Camel, Doeskin or Tan OEM Seat Belts and retractor system for a 1981 Corvette, complete set or without lower stalks OK. Both Driver Part #21231 041 (L/red cap) and Passenger Part # 21232 041(R/green cap) units required. Important: Webbing and retractors, must be in excellent condition...

Hi Guys & Gals Thanks for the further responces to date. Things are going to poo at this end. I have been locked into discussions with the LTSA (Land transport & Service Authority, the national government body) all day (thank god Im self employed, or would be fired for slacking), and the news...

Just a quick side note guys, you can dye the belts etc with the colour dye from either Corvette America or Mid Motorworks! If you want another colour, or just to un-fade the black! :beer

Thanks Jim I was supposed to do last weekend, but got side tracked with a few other issues on the car, but looking forward to it! ;LOL ;LOL ;LOL :beer

Hey 74BigBlock Would try to back off some tension first to see if this has an effect, and also loosen off the chassis clamps with the car on the ground, bounce a few times and tighten up on the ground to set at correct tension at ride height. In my experiance (all 20miles/20 minutes of it) sway...

Thanks Paintdaddy I think thats the reason they wont re-web here, worried about liability. Although they will re-web English & Aussie belts?????? just not US ones? Andover came back with 1 set only left of doeskin belts for $525 US plus freight,tax,and exchange rate thats about $950.00 landed...

Hey OceanGal I agree with lnirenberg, I would start by doing photoshop renderings over a photograph, to try all the ideas quickly. If you cant use photoshop, Im sure someone you know can, as quite common now. Then once, say two scheme prefferred/selected, transffer to a large model, each side...

Thanks Paintdaddy, I'll certainly have a look, although would prefer new if I'm importing from US. To send old ones to US, then import back is going to be $$$$$$$. Had found a vette parts importer here, who will do this for the modest sum of $ 740.00....ouch! Hence the plea! Have tonight...

Hey All I am DESPERATELY trying to find replacement seat belts for my L81 vette. :W Ideally would be tan to match, but would look at anything at present. I am looking for the whole system from retractors (left & right) belts and lower fixings (to keep electrical warnings intact). Some...

See the info on the thread under C3 discussion, it might help. :beer

Hey captras Thought this info that might help. Mid America Motorworks do a 75 Tach rebuild kit Part# 602779, price $58.99 US www.mamotorworks.com if you want to do it yourself. Corvette America does a rebuild service, where you send in your tach, they rebuild and send back Part # 41735 $...

Just reading through the thread, this is quite interesting and entertaining! The cornstarch idea is original, is it like putting butter on burns? ;LOL When I got my vette, it was a good 10' car. But its bloody hard to drive it @ 10'. Got frustrated, so stripped it, colour sanded it with 2000...

Sorry People That info about the tinted inlays for the glass t-tops was from Mid America Motorworks, not Corvette America! www.mamotorworks.com Also see they do a solid headliner for glass t-tops as well, maybe even better? Sorry for the ....ooops :beer

The srtipes in the centre are not symetrical? they dont flow correctly on the left to match the right. Well am I right? Do you get a prize? ;LOL A chocolate fish maybe! :beer
