Welcome to NAM.

Immense amount of information here on the Gen1 with over 85,000 threads along with the knowledge of the vendors and the members. You can shop for parts here in the Marketplace, check with some of the vendors (Way Motors and Detroit Tuned also complete repair shops that may have some used parts. ALLMAG Auto Parts is another vendor that is a recycle yard), local auto recyclers, ebay and craigslist. The biggest thing with parts is the shipping costs.

Whatever you don't use from your donor could be sold here as well.

thanks for the input, im just hoping my left over parts would sell, all id be using is engine most likely and thats it.
and shipping from canada would be a bit more but i would make the parts a bit cheaper to compromise the shipping.

Hmmm, Canada. Why did I think from your picture that you were nowhere near Atlanta (Way Motors) or Tampa (All Mag)?

Welcome to NAM.

Good looking Gen 1, I like the stripe sets off the color.

Loads of helpful information here abouts.

Motor On!
