    Welcome to the board! I dont have any suggestions but it sounds like a great project. I been scout'n around for a 70's or early 80's Camaro without much luck. Seems they are overpriced or in bad shape if you can find one around here. I'm sure if you ask more specific questions ya might get a better response. Good Luck!

    Its gunna take longer than u thought and its gunna cost more too(plan ahead!)
