Cool New Guy checking in!

Hey everybody! New guy here jsut sayin' hey. I just purchased a 1977 Camaro and drove it up from NJ to Binghamton, NY. It was an eBay purchase that didn't sell. I emailed the guy and offered $850 for it. He needed the money so a deal was struck. Drove down to pick it up, started comming back and noticed that the blinkers didn't work. No radio, no air... so what, that's all part of the "well, you should have seen it when I got it story!" I'll be checking for blown fuses after I mow the lawn. This isn't my first choice for classic style Camaro's but it will be a good start. The engine runs smotther than my wife's new Grand Am, it's got tons more room to work under the hood than my Fiero, and it's painted baby blue this balck stripes.

One question I have for anyone is about the flexibility I have in putting front end parts on it. I don't particularlly care for the '77 front end and am more interested in putting on the earliest front end I can '70 sould be nice. I know the purists out there are clutching their chests right now- sorry. I want what I want. I'm also looking to replace the fenders and rear qurater panels due to rust. As long as I'm going to do that, I'd like to put something that flares a little bit more, jsut to give it more style and to look different. And the last thing on the exterior will be a cool hood scoop to get more air where it belongs: feeding that engine.

That's enough for now, feel free to leave any comments about sources, links to body mods, photos of decent custom paint jobs (looking to go dark metalic blue with metalic silver accents/striping who knows, but those will be the combos) up comming auto shows where you might be, and any other helpful hints!
