good luck with this stuff, and be careful. it gets much more expensive than you may have planned very quickly
lol yeah I had to find out the hard way. i purchased The car for $100.00 from my auto shop teacher. It didn't come with any of the front sheet metal, nor did it come with any of the front suspension. On top of all that all of the spare parts it did come with were for a 69 . I wasn't sure how expensive it was going to be but after spending over $500 bucks for all the front sheet metal and another $300 bucks for a 67 camaro subframe with disc brakes, I knew this project was going to cost a lot more than any VW i've ever worked on.....after stumbling across the pro touring camaro's here on lateral-g.net I realized it's way worth the money and the time.
