86 Trans Am - Body Panels and other Canada
Hi, I have an 86 Trans Am that needs a new front fender and passenger side fender, as well as other things, (decal kit, headliner) I'm in Ontario, Canada and was hoping someone could help let me know if there's places to get stuff in Canada and anything else I might need.
I know about Hawks, summit racing and firebird central, just trying to save some money on shipping, conversions and import charges.
Thanks :P

Welcome aboard!
I'm not sure if you are thinking used OE parts, or new parts, or both? I'd would recommend used OE if you can find them. There are fairly regular complaints about the fit of the currently available aftermarket parts.
I hope you post a build thread so we can follow your progress.

You don't say where in Canada, but there is a place in Edmonton : http://www.davidt.com/.
I think there is a place in the Toronto area that specializes in F-bodies, but I can't seem to find the link now.
Whatever you do though, do not by a rear wing from showcars.

Re: 86 Trans Am - Body Panels and other Canada
I just ordered some small parts from thirdgenranch.com in the states. They were priced very reasonably (TBH their price was lower than expected for some interior wiring parts). If you live near the border like I do, it would be worth it to have large parts shipped to the border from thirdgenranch.com and then drive over and pick them up.
