Have you been searching for the best C3 Corvette parts but everything you’re finding is something you’re reticent (at best) to install in your Corvette? Does it feel like there should be better parts available for your C3 Corvette than there are? The truth is that, while the C3 is often considered the “newest” of the classic Corvettes, it is still a classic. So, the parts are, like those of other classic Corvettes, becoming rarer. That’s particularly true of the parts that are in good, working condition.
That’s where our NOS parts come in. These new old stock parts exemplify the name: they’re “old,” yes, in that they were originally constructed in the C3 era for C3 Corvettes. But, they’re also “new,” in that they have none-to-minimal usage. Below are just some of the NOS parts we offer that could be the right fit for your classic Corvette.
A Higher Quality of Lower Radiator Hose
One of our goals is always to offer the most specific parts, the kinds of parts that can either be right for many Corvette owners or just a few. A good example of this: the 1968 NOS 427 lower radiator hose we’re currently offering. It’s correct for 1968 Corvettes with 427 engines, all of them except for the L88.
This is one of those NOS parts that has never been installed, not in any Corvette at any time. As such, it’s in excellent condition, as if it was recently mailed to you from 1968. It’s in such excellent condition, in fact, that the interior support coil is intact and visible from not just one end but from both of them.
No NOS Part Too Small
There are some Corvette owners who may think some variation of: “well, that’s a small part. No one’s really going to notice it, I don’t think, so I don’t really need to get that for my Corvette.” That is the kind of Corvette owner that we rarely do business with. Usually, our Corvette owners are the opposite: they’re the kind that only want the best for their Corvettes. The most detailed, most exacting parts that fit perfectly – that’s who we cater to.
An example of a part that many of those Corvette owners (possibly like you) may enjoy: the 1970-1972 Corvette NOS Left Front Side Marker Lamp. Not only has this part never been installed, it’s actually still in the original GM box. As such, it has everything that you would expect from this part.
It has the Chevrolet logo as well as the “SAE API 70 LF” markings. The rear has a lens opening as well as two post mounts. It’s an amber colored lens. Again, this may be more detail than you need, but for some of you, it’s the minimal amount of detail that you demand.
More Than Just NOS Parts for C3 Corvettes

As such, these parts may have been sold by the time you’re reading this. We have a lot of customers and, as you may have noticed, classic Corvettes are and will be popular.
Beyond that, we also restore and offer replacement parts, all with the same exacting level of detail and care as these above. To see what we offer, call or check out our site.
