New to SC third gen, help

Hey all,
I'm 18, and just started with my third-gen fun after being driven around in a friend's (theaddkid2004) 91 Firebird for the last two years.
A few weeks ago, I bought a 91 Camaro RS 305 from some used car place in El Cajon, knowing it was gonna need some work, just to get it back to the way it's supposed to be (no tricks on the engine yet).
There's a couple parts I need, anyone that has any that they could give me a good deal on, please PM me.

** Driver's side T-Top (glass)
** High pressure power steering hose
Dash pad
Hood and hatch supports

Thanks for your help, I look forward to getting to know all of you.

Power steerting hose and hood/hatch supports you need to buy new ones. Most chain auto parts Kragan, Autozone, etc have lifetime warranties on the hood supports.

For the T top and dash pad best is to hit the wrecking yards. Sometime some come up on here but not often.

I have a good set of used hatch struts I rescued from the pick-a-part. I didn't need them, but I figured someone here might be able to use them. $20 for the pair if anyone wants them.

I know I have a few sets of hood struts floating around my storage space somewhere... the problem is finding them, since I've packed the front of my storage space full of moving boxes until I can sort things out in my new garage (which is packed full of moving boxes as well...) Stay tuned...
