Default First time Camaro owner

Hey all, I'm picking up my first Camaro on monday! Actually it's my first domestic car, i've always been an import guy but i think it's time to give the other side a try.

It's an '84 z28 with a 350 small block, T5 transmission, and posi 323. The interior and extieror both need a little work so it will be sort of a "mini project" to keep me busy. I'll post the full parts list and more pictures as soon as i pick it up.

Hope you like it!
