Exclamation Need advice on something

I have a 1994 TA that I just got rims and tires on it was stolen 3 months ago.raido and all the trim peaces are gone seats are cut up all the ac vents broken out.
((They could not get the wheels and tires off the car))
The dealership I work at just took a 95 cam in with a bad motor it's an LT1 and the body is in great shape so is everything else on the car 1500.00 for it and do a motor swap what do you guys think should I do this?????
or should I just put the money into fixing the TA up?

For $1,500, I think you should have plenty of money to replace all the broken/missing items out of your interior, and probably enough left over to buy some nice aftermarket racing seats if you wanted. It would be about 1/3 of the labor of doing a motor swap too.

Yea, I'd much rather do some interior than swap a motor. Keep in mind some things will look pretty odd in a Firebird from a Camaro.
