Camaro Work

So I've officially started the tear down of the Camaro. There is little to no rust on this car what so ever. I'm super pumped about this because that saves me on so much time and work. The only thing left to do is start removing the wiring. As soon as the wiring is removed I plan on pulling the motor, to do a tear down of it as well. It currently is a Lt1 with a few aftermarket parts. It has an Elderbrock throttle body, open headers, three inch exhaust, unsure of the transmission, (haven't got under it yet), brand new roller rockers. However it needs a new head gasket, new spark plugs, an egr, gonna replace the radiator, and some other odds and ends. I have a cam that I'm not sure if I'm gonna put it in or not. This project is meant to be a street car, that's gonna be fast, but I really want it to be sharp and look good, that's why most of my focus is going to the body work, and the interior. Im 95% sure I'm going to do a 98-02 conversion on the car, same body style, just looks better in my opinion. I plan on putting in 2 Sparco pro 2000 seats. These are $750 a piece, a visage body kit, considering making it into a wide body if I feel up to it. Also the back part of the car wont have anything in it, other then a sound system. I'm thinking about getting a veil side spoiler to put on, but not sure if I wanna spend that type of money just for a spoiler. I'm putting some 18" Helo 825 rims on the front, and 20"s on the back. The time frame I'm putting on this project is around a year and a half. If anyone has any suggestions, feel free to comment and let me know thanks!
