Quik, Team Camaro has a Pro-touring forum http://www.camaros.net/forums/56-pro-touring/

But you will need to consult the other forums to get the basic body and non-moded portions of the car.

The hardest part about 1st gens is to deal with the body. Almost all the projects we see now are really rusted or pigs with lipstick. So if you do not have major welding skills, you need to find a better cared for car that will provide a good base (but this means way more $$$!).

Another good forum is the "whats it worth" http://www.camaros.net/forums/66-whats-worth/

We talk about ebay and other ads and critique the worthiness of them. So any car you find, post it up and we will give you the good and bad.

So join up and stop by the welcome section http://www.camaros.net/forums/67-welcome-wagon/ and say Hi. We will steer you in the right direction

KevinW, Mod on Team Camaro

Omar, thanks for the recommendation too!
