Default California Vette parts?

Hi,
I've just discovered that a mate is currently working in California. Where are good places to buy C3 spares in California? (I know it's a big place, but he's making the most of it & travelling a lot).
TIA
Paul

America's Finest Corvettes. They are located in Ramona, down in Southern California. They also have a web site. I don't know if they will let you walk around their salvage yard or not.

I go to J & D Corvette in Bellflower, Ca. about 20 miles south-east of Los Angeles. Lots of Shark and C4 parts. They have had just about anything I have need used. For new stuff I go Orange Coast Corvette in Anaheim.

Hi Paul,

I just spent three weeks in Los Angeles and one place I visited was Corvette Mike`s, Tustin Ave, Anaheim. He had an excellent selection of cars and there was also a parts counter. The other place I saw advertised but unfortunately couldn`t find was a place called McJacks, both have good web sites. I would suggest buying the Corvette&Chevy Trader which is full of adverts and there are loads of places in California but if you are even remotely interested in Vette`s Corvette Mike`s is worth a visit.



I`ll be posting some pictures of my trip this week so check out my site later for some awesome vettes. The sales guy at Corvette Mike`s let me wander around the workshop as well as the showroom.

J.

Hi,
Thanks for the replies. Now I've got a few names I'll send my mate an email (& see if he's willing to do me a favour!).
GROSSPOLLUTER60: what an excellent name! :lol:
Thanks
Paul

Great to hear that you'll be at Cambria. I'll be looking forward to that ride! It'll make a change from meeting in the dark at an In 'n Out parking lot:D

We'll be coming down from San Francisco on the Thursday... see youthere.

Am I worried about flying......? :eek:
