Hi everyone

Iīm unable to find a source for buying those T-Top trim parts like the shiny mouldings around the T-Tops.
Further more Iīd need the inner molding for the weatherstrip which is fixed at the angled windshield frame beam.
Other parts that Iīm unable to find are
-hood spring
-the 4 chrome T-Top fastening parts mounted on the centerbeam (roof) for my coupe
-Plastic rivets for the A-arm splash shields (I already tried different automotive suppliers - nothing yet)

I already tried Ecklers, Mid America, Corvette America,......

Thanks for any input

Check the "C3 Parts for sale" forum.

As far as I can tell no one makes them. I repaired a t-top for a friend of mine and bought a "piece of junk" t-top at a swap meet last year just to get decent trim. The hardest part was removing the trim from the crap t-top without damaging the trim.

With all those strike-outs, you might want to contact someone that carries used parts. I know Paragon does. Not sure about Dr Rebuild.

Contemporary Corvette or other Corvette used parts dealers might have what you need. I can't remember how to spell this guy name Grualla enterprizes i think. There is another place called Sunshine Corvette's in Florida. Thats all I can think of at the moment.

on new & used parts check with gary gruhala in de soto, missouri, near
st. louis,mo. gary worked for gm until he retired and used to work in the c3 plant. sorry don't have his website or tel #, but you can do a search and it should come up, look under gary gruhala enterprises. T-top trim parts are hard to come by. good luck

Wow! Thanks for your help guys!
Sorry for answering so late but I had no internet acces for the last days.
Iīll check out again which parts are worth to use and which are crap.
I just thought Iīd ask before restoring them

The hood spring you are refering to? The base hood latches? If so, I do have an extra drivers side base latch. If that is what you are looking for, e-mail me and you can have it for $10.00 + shipping.tlchydraulics@cs.com
