Default New Project Car: 1995 TransAm

This is my new project car. It's been in the family for some time and am the lucky recipient.

I need both from quarter panels and drivers door.

I would also like to know if anyone has some good links to after-market parts like headliight covers and body kits. I'm not as savy with parts sites like some of you so I would like your help.

I'm also looking to buy a new LT1 motor instead of rebuilding the current one.

Thanks and I will post here as progress is made. Street date is April/May of 2013.

Thanks for looking

Good luck with your build !! My son wrecked the front of my 95 T/a. I still have it.. I'm thinking about selling it.. It has 54000 miles.. Motor runs good.. He went over a high curb with it.. What state are you in ??? I'm in VA Beach..

You should get an LSx engine, cheaper to build, more reliable, and not an LT1
