Finally! Just bought rolling-chasis '68 sport coupe to restore. It's been 11 years since I sold my last '68 so I've been out of the game for quite a while. Happy to say the juices are flowing again.
Can anyone recommend a website/dealer for quality restoration parts? My father has a 350 engine we're going to use, but other than the sheetmetal and suspension I need everything else. I'm in the Philadelphia area, so anything close where I could avoid shipping would be even better.
Thanks

First off I'd recommend our site sponsor, Ground Up Restorations:
http://www.ss396.com
Then I'd recommend one of our member's sites:
http://www.belairbobs.com
Then I'd recommend any of the major parts houses(in order of importance to *me*):
http://www.firstgen.com/
http://classicindustries.com/index.html
http://www.drclassic.com/index.html
http://www.npdlink.com/
http://trimparts.com/
http://www.mattsclassicbowties.com/
http://www.firewheelclassics.com/
And here's some "not-so-major" parts houses:
http://www.cpucarparts.com/
http://1967-81camarocarparts.com/
http://www.paddockparts.com/Paddock/assets/html/homepage.asp?URLCheck=1
http://www.genesgeneralstore.com/
Performance parts:
http://www.summitracing.com
http://www.jegs.com
There are many other places to recommend if you are looking for specific things like drivetrain parts, and suspension and steering that I'd recommend other places for but it'd be best if you told us what you're looking for when you need it.
Cheers and good luck!

Thanks. This should keep me busy. Once I get through all the boxes of the parts that came with it and inventory what I can keep and what I need to replace, I'll check back with specifics.
