Thanks for the opinions guys . . . It made me realize that I wasn't thinking too clearly.
Does anyone know where I can get my hands on a '69 Camaro? I know it's stereotypical, but I really want a '69. A 4 speed would be cool in that! I am somewhat bored with my car, and it's due to the lack of horsepower. Suffised to say, I have absolutely no money to beef up my Camaro (It all went to the looks); all show and no go. Quite some time ago I missed out on an auction for a '69, I think the price was around $3800, and it was even in Wisconsin! I had just bought my car at the time, and there was no way my mother would let me have 2 cars, so I missed out. Here's some pics of it . . .

The driver's side quarter was rough, and definitely needed to be replaced, but I could've done that. So much for my dreams . . .
It even had Cragars on it!

We're not exactly known for cars here, but known for the rust that comes with 'em!
I'm pretty sure that we're also known for the most bars per square mile . . . ![]() And don't forget the cheese curds! ![]() I don't think the heritage of the car really affects me too much, I'm just looking for a musclecar in Wisconsin . . . preferrably a '69 Camaro for a "reasonable" price, hence my signature below. ![]()

WHY NOT JUST PUT SOME HORSEPOWER IN YOUR CAMARO, IT'S A SWEET LOOKING RIDE. SMALL BLOCK CHEVY PARTS ARE RELATIVELY CHEAP AND EASY TO INSTALL. IF YOU ARE ON A BUDGET, BUYING AN OLD CAR THAT NEEDS RESTORATION DOES NOT MAKE MUCH SENSE WHEN YOU ALREADY HAVE SUCH A NICE CAR TO BUILD ON. THROW A COUPLE THOUSAND DOLLARS INTO A 350 AND YOU WILL HAVE A STRONG, GOOD-LOOKING CAR.

Easiest way is to advertise in your local "nickel ads". I have found parts this way that were a bit cheaper than Ebay but if your good at haggling, have cash in hand, or put it in a brown paper bag giving him a peek or two, the seller will relent if motivated. I have noticed that 1969 Camaro prices have moved up pretty fast after the Fast\Furious movie. I think it's everyones favorite year of Camaro. After my projects are gone my next project would be an AMC AMX. Cheaper 2 buy. 2 seats, far-out colors. Camaro parts and prices have gotton out of hand.
