The chrome wheels are 17 inch Eagle’s with P275/40/ZR17 Goodyear Eagle GS-C tires.

There are plenty of cars like this for sale for 7K-8K with edgy paint, sun bleached interior, smoked in, and dogged out. This Corvette is super nice, includes an awesome color combination, has been driven only 10K miles in the past five years by a 60 year old man. It is sure to please even the most discerning buyer.

Corvette Roof Panel

Another reason to choose Zip for your remanufactured Corvette roof panel is that we have gone out of our way to help you save on outrageous shipping costs within the United States. Almost every company will be happy to sell you a C4 or C5 Corvette Roof Panel but will fail to cover or mention the high shipping costs you will be forced to pay when sending your roof panel core back in for refund. The cost to return your roof panel will likely be upwards of $90.00 to ship it back, ultimately cutting your core refund by nearly one-fifth of the amount. If you purchase a remanufactured Corvette roof panel from Zip we will include a pre-paid shipping label, which guarantees that you will not pay any return freight fees (inside the continental US) when returning your core, we’ll pay it!

Once again Zip provides the Corvette aftermarket a superior product, with superior customer service than the competition.

When asked about Zip being a new sponsor of the event, Halverson said “Of course I’m glad Zip is sponsoring us because that support helps my organizing team put on a better event for our Caravaners, but there’s another reason I’m glad to have Zip as a sponsor; As a hardcore Corvette enthusiast who personally does most of the service, maintenance and modification to the Vettes I own, I appreciate the fact that a Corvette Parts vendor who markets to do-it-yourselfers supports the events in which Corvette DIYs typically participate. A caravan section captain is the one responsible for acquiring sponsorship and, as a result I network with all the other 24 section captains on sponsorship issues. I can tell you much of the Corvette aftermarket does not support the Caravan. Zip Corvette is a standout-exception to that norm.”

Thanks Hib! We appreciate the opportunity to support the Caravan and are very proud and grateful that you recognize that Zip is more than just a Corvette Parts retailer. We are real people that love Corvettes and we have those personal relationships with our customers, Corvette clubs, Caravaners, etc. that make us feel good about what we do. Thanks again!

You can buy the same exact rotors for your Corvette in our online store.

The two day event at VIR gave Zip the opportunity to get out to the track meet more of our customers that enjoy the racing side of the Corvette world. While in attendance Zip Corvette was able to answer questions, discuss new Corvette Parts in the making, and meet a bunch of Corvette drivers and enthusiasts alike. Among the most popular topics discussed included our newly finished Mamba Air Intake System and our 2-piece Corvette Rotors. With the combination of high speeds and sharp corners at VIR, every Corvette Brake System will be pushed to the maximum.

Corvette Show

We had an amazing turnout! And it did our hearts good to see so many Corvette enthusiasts come out and show pride after a week of so much terrible news surrounding GM. Bankruptcy and uncertainty about product continuation were the final blows dealt by GM, blows that affect every Corvette enthusiast. Yet row after row of gorgeous cars, from original straight-axles to fully customized C6s, enjoyed perfect weather and Corvette owner camaraderie.

This was significant for everyone at Zip. As a leader in our industry, instead of making cuts and pulling back like many others, we have been pushing hard and investing in our company, and ultimately in our customers. We have invested heavily in GM supplied parts, stocking up on AC-Delco and everything else that we get direct from GM. With lots of dealerships closing and major restructuring at GM, the future looks uncertain, but Zip is prepared! You can rest assured that Zip is doing, and will continue to do, everything in our power to provide you with the Corvette Parts and Accessories that you want and need. We have some big announcements and VERY hot products coming soon!

The show solidified our belief that the Corvette community is alive and well! Zip has been selling quality Corvette Parts and Accessories since 1977 and we have seen a lot of competitors come and go. But we want you to know that as long as Corvette pride is strong, so will be Zip’s commitment to being your preferred Corvette Parts and Accessories supplier. Thank you!
