If you want any kind of decent sound, replace the console with a different one (without the stick and accompanying holes) and put in a regular head unit. The factory Berlinetta units (with ERS extended range sound) didn't sound terrible but you can get much better sound quality at a lower price by going aftermarket. I only suggest this because it doesn't seem like you're going for a perfectly original restoration. I've owned a handful of third gens myself and I loved them. If you have t-tops, get subframe connectors as soon as you can! Third gens handle pretty well stock, but they're structurally weak. Those cars are relatively light, too, so you won't need a ton of power to make it fun. Try to find a 350 if you can, 305's aren't great motors for revving high and their small displacement limits their torque. I hope you have as much fun with your third gen Camaro as I did with mine.
