Default Late style interoir swap into early C4

hmmm, I couldnt find anything on this in the archives, and my local corvette parts shop told me I was stupid, but Ive seen it done in at least 2 cars so I know it can be done damnit :smash: It seems that the door panels (94+) will bolt or screw right on but I an wondering about the dash. Anybody :confused:

ask -=Jeff=- the crazy guys redone his entire car.
here it is www.vettextc.net
and what corvette parts place is this? but yeah they are kinda right about it being stupid that you want to swap the interior. if you want the 94 interior then go buy a 94 vette. you'll save alot of cash that way.

That was probably corvette specialties..they're kinda strange. The mechanics like to argue with me about my diagnosis when i want to buy parts. Strange I always seem to get the car fixed.

ehn screw corvette specialties they're a bunch of azzholes to boot.
i never deal with em ever since i bought my car from them
they are just out to scam money from people.
the owner is so reluctant to let go of his store of used parts.
hell i doubt any of the employees or owners there even drive corvettes.
then not to mention all their mechanics and employees are a bunch of crackheads you ever seen the untrained idiots that work there? its amazing these guys have been in business for so long.

anyways i deal with coast corvettes only now.

Yea it was corvette specialties, I know they are rip off artists, but itès them or coast corvettes, and I know that they have a big used parts selection, thats why I asked them.
I think it would be cheaper to buy a early C4 off the forum from the states and then swap the interior. Just a thought.

Cheif yeah they got the biggest parts department in the lower mainland
why don't you try with coast corvettes' owners brothers place in Kelowna??

Specialty Holdings. let me get you their web address,
Coast Corvettes is run by Rick Warawa
his brother, Frank, runs Specialty holdings
http://www.specialtyholdingsltd.com
(250) 374 - 6343

ask him about that stuff i am sure you will have a better time getting stuff from him.
and the idea of swapping interiors is cool but i dunno it will kill resale value of that car. and are you competent enough to do so? i know i couldn't pull such a thing off myself. I know Jeff has done it then again his cars always opened up you would wonder if its ever on the road ;)

Damn that's a rough statement!!! LOL

yes my car is undergoing an interior swap.. Yes every winter I seem to want to change something, but yet every summer I get to drive it.. When My engine harness broke a connector last year on the Alternator (Oct) I decided the time was right to start the swap.

The only other down time my car had last year was when it decided to snap a rocker stud in July and I had to wait for parts.. Otherwise it runs most of the summer months...

:D I think it is quite funny that on the forum I am being well known for the car apart the most .. I think I should get an award... LMAO

I agree, I think we have more pics of your car up on jackstands than on the ground :p:
Then again with all the work you have done you know every last inch of these cars, litterally.
I know where to bring mine when something goes wrong :D
