Default Lost 't' off my Vette Saturday

Saturday night was the big office party at the boss' house. Decided it was a nice night for probably the last evening out in the vette for the year. On the way there, one of the letters fell off of the car. I now have what appears to be a CORVET E. Any ideas where I can find a replacement for the missing t and what's required for it's install?

Eckler's, Mid America, et al sell the letters but I believe you have to purchase the whole set.

Go to a local car show, preferably an NCRS meet. Find the correct year vette and pry off what you need.

You are lucky! I thought you lost the "T" in your t-top!! :) MJ

I hate those darn letters, I never lost one, but they were always loose and did not appeal to me. I don't have to worry about them anymore. :) :yesnod:

I was driving a COR ETTE for a while a couple years ago.

Call Paragon and talk to one of the guys on the Paragon Vintage side of the business (Probably Richard or Al) Tell them what the situation is, and how new or how mint of a T you're looking for. They should be able to set you up with a used T in the condition you're looking for. Great folks up there.

Thanks guys. I knew it was loose. It snagged on a towel when I was washing it last summer and was not as tight as the other. Apparently, it was a little looser than I thought though.
