Beware of bogus Scumbag Ebay seller VINTAGEAUTOPARTS.

[Z51JEFF]

I bought an NOS tire sensor from this Scumbag.After paying for the item,no communication for almost 4 weeks finally get the part after contacting PayPal and its used at $186.You can clearly see where the thing has been mounted to a wheel.What good is using PayPal if they insist on having the CC company do all the work?Ya got to love Fleabay.

That sucks. Did you contact Ebay? You can also dispute the charges w/ the CC company. Raise hell, the squeaky wheel gets the oil.

This is the website for the company that the dealers go to to find parts no longer available in the inventory. Save it to your favorites. I just had a ZR-1 owner here order the triangle piece for the sport seat adjustment there.

They buy inventory from manufacturer's when they are done carrying the parts. Check them before you look on Ebay for anything. You need the part number.

Examples:

Triangle Piece
http://www.vpartsinc.com/search?manufacturers=34&sortField=sku&sortOrder=ASC&sSearch=12514823&searchMode=starts_with&x=11&y=8

Radiator Inlet Hose, Eng to Tee (Need 2)
http://www.vpartsinc.com/search?manufacturers=34&sortField=sku&sortOrder=ASC&sSearch=10135658&searchMode=starts_with&x=18&y=10

Thermostat to Radiator Hose
http://www.vpartsinc.com/search?manufacturers=34&sortField=sku&sortOrder=ASC&sSearch=10135660&searchMode=starts_with&x=11&y=6

They have a lot more too, just check them. Have fun.

This is NOT the same company as the Scammer on Ebay.

It'd be nice to have a "sticky" thread for all such sleaz.
Each post could be a vendor with the issue.
Sad that this goes on. :-x

Yep, I know, and I wanted all to know. It is the legit company for vintage parts.
