Hey all,
I am new here and a new (to me) cav owner. I recently picked up my grandpa's 84 Cavalier convertible. I am the 3 generation in the family to own this car, and am planning to do some resto and a few personal preference upgrades. I will be scouring these forums looking for tips, tricks and resources. Here is what I am starting with

So far I am striking out BIG time looking for body parts. I am going to be on the hunt for a set of 1st gen skirts and 2nd gen skirts, as well as a 1st gen hood, and a 1st gen wing.

These 2 cars are my inspiration!!!! If you guys know the owners, I would love to chat with them on what they did!!

Well you picked two of the best examples of clean cav of that generation.

Finding parts are very hard these days.

Yeah, I am noticing that I am actually looking forward to walking the boneyards for parts on the weekends again

Welcome! I do love a good first gen build. If you're looking for parts and knowledge about these cars you've come to the right place; there is a good group of 1st gen guys here. Post up in the 1st gen forum on this site and I'm sure they'll be happy to help you out. The best thing you can do to get started is to use the custom google search box in the top right hand corner of the page. You'd be surprised how much info is available just by searching.
