Hello Everyone. New member here. Long time car guy getting back into the hobby. To be honest I have always messed around with GMs especially F-bodies and been on a long search for a car for a resto project. Always loved the look of the GT Fastbacks and my research as led me to this forum. Thanks for all the great info.  I look forward to possibly becoming a contributing member if I can find myself a decent starting project! (which is hard these days).

Welcome! They're out there; You will find one, be sure to watch the classifieds here, as well as the other groups and forums.
What are you limiting factors? Distance? Price? Are you looking for specific years or models?

I went from 2006 to 2023 casually searching for the car that met my criteria within the budget I had, but once I got the budget, time, and space all available i went hard searching and after 6 months found the right one.

Good luck and look forward to seeing your project!

Welcome to the forum! I have upgraded you to a full member so you have full forum privileges. The GTS fastbacks are getting harder to find, but hopefully you can find a one. Feel free to ask any questions about the cars, we have lots of knowledgeable members here.

Thanks Vince for the welcome and upgrade! I did find a local GTS fastback locally but have not yet taken a look. Still trying to research the value, I will post up for an opinion.
