doors

Will any door from a Firebird,TA fit on a camaro? and also does the front left and right fenders bolt up too!
I found a TA that has no motor And he said the 5 speed trany is good All I need from this car is the driver's side door and the rest I will part out, He will sell it to me for 250.00 and the body is in excellent shape.

The fenders wont work on a camaro due to a diff slope. You'd see it if you looked at the two fenders dead on.

The doors are the same between the two as far as i know, i believe the only difference is the interior trim/door panel.

the fenders will technically bolt on to the frame (Transcamaro) but are different as far as looks and what not. I say buy the car for cheap and put a new motor in it and get a new doro elsewhere

Are you talking about the removable molding?

I believe he is talking about the ground effects. The Trans Am has ground effects and they are different from the camro ground effects. Base Firebirds don't have ground effects and they don't have the bracket for the ground effects either.
