Default Help me make a decision

I want to swap an ls into either my 71 nova or my 71 rs/ss camaro. Both cars are projects but the camaro has a really solid body. On the other hand the nova was my first car and i would love to get it back on the road. My goal is to have a good reliable dd no matter which car i choose. I want an ls and t56. Here's my other problem, do i rob my '00 ws6 of its drivetrain or do i sell the car and use that money for the swap? What would you guys do?

If you part out the WS6 you'll have another project on your hands trying to get rid of it. I'd just sell the car & try to find what you need and then go from there.

As for Nova or Camaro? That's all up to you...

Yeah true, the last thing i need is another project. I guess I'd be better off selling the ta and rounding up parts for the swap.

sell the t/a to somebody else who will enjoy it, rather than stripping a perfectly nice car

Dont get me wrong, I love old camaro's but theres just something about a nova. Gets my vote. Parting out cars can be a bitch too I would just sell the T/A. My .02

I know, i would hate to strip a real ws6. Definitely just going to sell it when the time is right.
