Personally I would try to find a buyer for the Camaro(which by the way is a nice car, nice paint, rims, etc.) If the truck needs that much work then forget about it, sell the Camaro, buy a truck then have money left over to build your own motor and fix sheetmetal.
JMO though, you may like cars more than trucks, its a matter of the person. Brandon |

If you can trade straight up, I would go for it. 85 Camaros are a dime a dozen right now it my area, you could buy 20 next week if you had the money, but you don't see very many 68 step side trucks, much less for sale. So my thinking, truck is better value

big71, I'm sorry I just can't understand your post. Please type slower and maybe use a spell checker. I know that sounds incredibly rude (and it is) but I just can't make sense out of it. Sorry.
Are you saying you have a truck to trade for the car or someone wants to give you a truck for the car. If it is the latter then I would keep the car as it sounds like you already have a nice truck.

I got my 67 step LWB with no rust and no bondo for $1000. From looking at that Camaro it looks to be worth a lot mor than $1000, especially if it has the TBI. If you dont want the car sell it and use the money to fix up one of the current 3 trucks you got already. If you get the truck and you dont want the SWB bed let me know, I need a SWB bed.
