Default Getting Started???

I've been lurking aournd the site for quite awhile, and decided to finally take the plunge and sign up.

Over the last 17 years I've restored, built and raced a number of muscelcars. Unfortunately, I don't have the top $$'s to buy a top of the line Supercar, but I'd really like to get invloved with a group like this one.

Does anyone out there have any suggestions on the best way to get started in finding a project Supercar? I know that a bunch of you are seem to have a knack for finding these awesome pieces.

Anything anyone could offer would be appreciated, or if someone has a project Supercar they might want to sell to a good home.

How much searching are you willing to do? Most of us have leads on cars, but might live several states away. Maybe you could do some of the legwork, and if you find one - buy it! What type of supercar are you looking for?

Motown has assured us that he will be pulling the #1 project car out of WI soon [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

I'm more than happy to check ito some leads if anyone needs some help and thinks they could help me out in turn. One thing I'm not afraid of is getting dirty and poking around.

I've never really researched a car from scratch and tracked one down, so I'll probably have a bunch of questions, but I'm interested in learning.

Would prefer a Camaro or Nova - No specific version of either one though.
