1. if i was you i would jump on the 2 bills in a heart beat,can buy all the restoration parts you want from www.yearone,or www.classicindustries.com,they both sell restoration parts for the camaro...and can get other parts from jegs.com or summitracing.com.
2. Def. worth buying and fixing if your into classic cars!!!!
3. Okay kid, lemme give you some good advice. for starters. 1982-1992 Camaro's had a total different body style than the previous body style so it can't be a 75-85. ThenI know what you're think, yea kickss its a camaro it'll be my great first car. You need to think about insurance on a car like that being only 16 when you get there. Then do you realize the money it takes to keep up an older car? It's not cheap lemme tell ya. But if you think you can work hard enough and put alot of time and money into something like that then go ahead.. I'm not going to shoot your dreams down.. But just remember to think before you do it. I bought a 1968 Ford XL Fastback when I was your age thinking it was cool..... and it was a mistake... Goodluck with your decision.
4. Well, I hope you look under the hood to make sure there is an engine in there. Also, what about the interior? If that car has a trashed transmission, you could be needing to spend a lot of money on it. The most important thing will be to get a clear title.
5. If it has a pretty good body and good interior it is well worth 2 hundred as long as it has a title.
6. If the floor boards and rear quarters aren't falling off due to rust, I'd buy the car. Parts are fairly inexpensive for that car, and from now on the value of that car will only go up.
