If it was you.. What would you build for a decent weekend toy? I'm thinking about picking up a high-mileage T/A or Z28 for cheap, or a roller if I can find one, and having a engine and tranny built (A3/A4) b/c I'd rather have an auto for a drag car.
If you wanna make it a project car n want somethin cheap with cash in hand you can get yourself a salvage titled car to put that motor/tranny in! Try goin to auctions you might find yourself somethin cheap but with potential!

Yea I was thinking about getting a cheaper one with a salvage title. Just not sure how the registration stuff goes for one with a salvaged title here in Tx. I know a local car salesman who'll let me go with him to the auctions and buy whatever for me, just have to give him $100 or so.

i've always liked how an ls1 looks in a 3rd gen camaro. plenty of room to work, a few hundred lbs lighter than a 4th gen, and dirt cheap.
i've been wanting to put an lt1 or ls1 in a 92 rs for years

Get another 67-69 Firebird and put the money into that one. At least if you get bored later you won't lose a dime on it. 4th gens are basically bottomless canyons to dump money into, compared with 1st gens which increase in value each year.
