Awesome :D I want to find a car like that. I have a line on an 83 Pontiac GP. I want to purchase an LS3 for it.
Anyway, whats the plan for that?

I'd like to tear it down and rebuild it from the bottom up, needs a bunch of front end work done, the original owner ran a red light and ran into a lady in an SUV. He bent the frame a bit, and ended up buying it back from the insurance company and selling it to a Saturn mechanic at a dealership we do work at here in Windsor.

The Mechanic sent it to a frame shop and got the frame straightened, he dumped about 4 grand on top of that in parts, and shop labour. After he got it all straightened and the wheels back on, he measured the height of the car all the way around and it was good, but the sway bar is all bent to hell. But, that's all good.

Haha, lets hope so.

Find real T-tops quickly. There is a reason Pontiac only made Lexan t-tops for one year. I can only imagine the aftermarket ones were bought to replace glass ones. Other then that awesome ride. :) Great place for F-body folks here: www.fbodyonline.com

Never heard of fbodyonline, I've been on Thirdgen for like 3 years now, though.
