Well guys, as much as I hate to do it, but I have to in order to keep this car, the Camaro is going back to stock style setup...details in this thread here...
https://ls1tech.com/forums/lt1-lt4-m...ack-stock.html
Due to financial trouble Im selling my wifes Honda Civic to avoid car payments and Im giving the 94 to her for a daily driver. I dont know what the future will hold once things settle down, may keep it as a nice street car or may go back to my old setup.
I will need your guys help if you can. Im trying to locate the stock parts Ive thrown away or sold. Mainly looking for wiper arm assembly, windshield washer tank and lines, complete HVAC system, factory accessory setup (will trade power steering delete/alt relocation kit for) crash supports, factory wheels and tires (selling the ProStars) an LS1 center console (selling the ProStick) just off the top of my head.
I am going to keep this car detailed and maintained for her as well as any modifications that are going to help performance and streetability. So the car isnt leaving, just the theme/purpose of the car...it may turn out looking nicer than before, who knows...I will continue on this thread as progress happens

Also as far as my hood goes, my wife has trouble seeing over the 4 inch Glasstek hood. If anyone has a SS style hood and intake, I will trade my hood, the ls1 intake complete setup, and hoodpins for it. If someones interested in the hood without a hood to trade, Id sell it for whatever a SS hood costs shipped to my door. Id cover paint myself. My cell is 815-219-3353

Love to work something out with you Bersaglieri, but Id perfer local trades since the hood is fiberglass and painted, Id be worried something would get damaged and I cant be without a hood right now as well.
damn dude it sucks to hear you won't be pushing forward with this build. I've been watching this from the beginning and you've done an awsome job with everything so far. The car looks sick. Buutt, you gotta do what you gotta do.
PM me about all the wiper arm/windshield washer stuff. I should have about 80-90% of everything. Maybe we can work out a trade or something.

hey just went out into the garage,i have the factory accessory bracket,tensioner but am missing the ideler pulley it might be in a trash can of parts though and no bolts for it..i also have the stock power steering pump and reserve still..that would need just the hard line redone an 1 new hose.
Ive got a bunch of stuff you could use. I am in the process of building a motor and puting the car on a diet. Let me figure out what I will not need and PM me in a day or so, Ill have a list of stuff you can get REAL cheap as im so over budget its not even funny.

I have my hood and dual exhaust up for trade in the classifieds, along with selling my ProStick, TH350 and convertor.
I have a deal pending right now trading my ProStars for some silver SS 10-spoke wheels/tires along with a strut tower brace. Figure maybe paint the inserts black on the wheels and polish the spokes and lip? I think that would look nice. Still want this car to stand out and look nice.

Good and bad news...bad news is the ProStars are gone, but good news is I have SS wheels now on the car.
A few of the wheels themselves...

Snapped a couple pictures...



I actually like how these look but now with these on, Im thinking of going a different route. An SS hood and rear spoiler (shoulda kept mine) would look nice with the wheels...or possibly a LS1 front end with a SS hood. I still need to lower the front to get rid of that horrible gap and match the rears.
If anyone has a set of stock stuts or aftermarket ones and the top plate for sale, let me know. I have lowering springs for the front, but I cant get the top strut nut off, its rusted on there bad.
Anyone looking to get rid of their aftermarket exhaust for a true dual setup? I will trade straight up for a 3 inch setup from the header back. Mine are dual 3 inch out to magnaflow mufflers right before the axle.

that actually doesn't look so bad with those ss wheels. If you paint those spokes it should look pretty good. and please don't go with the ls1 front end those are nasty.
The car looks like its hauling down the track just sitting there.

Stock Interior is pretty much back in. Traded my race buckets to am_muscl for the leather interior (pretty good shape, minus a small tear on the drivers seat that hopefully someone can patch) I think Im OCD on making everything look perfect so I may have to get a seat cover if an upolstry (sp?) shop cant fix it.
I just need to get the center console and radio from Jason (am_muscl) and hook that stuff up.
I need the complete under the dash vents and all that (pretty much need the entire HVAC system) if anyone took theirs out and didnt destroy it in the process
