Best lookin sc....
Next week i am being donated a new car. in a late 80's base camaro.
What can i do with this body. gonna take a motor and tranny i have and install them in this car. This will make me having 4(3 that can drive soon) thirdgen's.
Plus, what would be a good idea to get from my junk 87 ws6 TA and install in this SC?

The first things of note are gonna be suspension, driveshaft, and rear axle.
Suspension in that SC is not going to be much of anything compared to your WS6. Same with the tires. IIRC, WS6 got wider tires like the IROC. Might be wrong.
Driveshaft depends, but I'd keep the old one in case you find a wobble in the steel one in the SC.
Rear gearing might be a problem. Depending on your RPO's you're looking at 2.73 or something. Not exactly what you want if you ever drag race the car.
