wife had enought now has a new toy,
i bought a project 91 z-28 camaro convert needing some work,
top, interior since it had none and normal tune-up stuff, even went as far a buying a wrecked camaro convert as a parts car for most of the interior stuff,
and cleanning out the garage and putting the car in,
well its been 1 year and the car is still not any further along then when i put it in the garage, my close friend bought a 49 plymouth delux and kicked his camaro convert out of the garage, now his car is mine, its a marron 91 z-28 convet with a black interior and top, has lots of work done, crome 02 ss wheels, brand new tires, lowered etc, car does need paint clear is flaking off in spots , cowl hood its blue, but the car runs drives and is road worthy, so she is going to regester and insure it to drive it, i wanted a stock car for her to drive but she now has a modifyed one,
now what do i do with her other 91 camaro convert, its bright red with a black interior and top, 86k miles, not sure if i should just sell it or fix it or fix it and use it for myself, and sell the 91 trans am convert i have as well as my 92 formula and keep the red 91 z-28

Well if your having all that trouble you should give them all to me... i have plenty of room to keep all of them garaged. But seriously I'd keep the one you like the best (or 2 you like the best and let your wife drive one) im not sure what your personal preferances are between camaros and ta's

Ted, given all the parts you have lying around, the better choice might be to keep one, and sell the other two. Make room for the stuff thats spilled out of the garage and onto the driveway. 
My suggestion is to keep the TA and sell the other Camaro. If you want a Camaro fix, take your wife's car for an hour or two. That way you have one of each.

I like the low-slung look the red vert has.

thanks for putting up the pics,
the white convert is the second convert i ever bought , sold, then bought back damaged, now in the process of fixing and selling it when finnished,
the maroon one is at sts to get the alignment done, after that its off to the exhaust shop to mouth the borla correctly up, then cruse for the rest of the summer,
the bright red one will be there till next spring unless someone buys it as is,
