just nix those silly appearance mods & add an extra $700 to your "Other" list and you'd be off to a great start

Lumina: Add antifreeze approximately once every two weeks to maintain heat and driveability.
Camaro: Purchase proper carb (Holley 750 DP) and maybe get it driveable or something like that.....

You don't mean the supports in the door across the skin, do you? They kind of come in handy if you get in an accident.
You really need one of these:
Winter projects for the 77:
*pull motor, oil pan/main seal gaskets. Paint & clean. Nothing fancy for now
*Solid frame mounts, sub frame connectors
*Tubular upper control arms; GW lower l/a bushings
*sway bar bushings f&r
*radiator, LT1 electric fans, http://www.dccontrol.com/ controller
*serpentine system
*iroc steering box
*re-bushing door hinge pins
*new motor mounts (oe style)
*stainless brake hoses, kevlar pads & shoes; new w/c & hdw in the back
*lots of underhood clean up
*adapt late model style ac compressor to car
*new clutch (see oil leaks i.e. clutch chatter)
*assorted other nickle & dime stuff that adds up to big $$.

i've "heard" of places that dont even need to see the vehicle. just a valid insurance and registration card. if you have a extra few dollars its way easier to do it that way anyway. drop the info off and pick up what you need the next day. i wouldnt encourage such illegal behavior though. i am a law obiding citzen and proud of it.
