I have an 86 Camaro Z28, not sure if you guys would consider it pro-touring yet. I bought it in 08' as my first car and have been slowly getting things done on it.
Here is it the day I bought it:

Now here is a more recent picture of it:

Some things I have done to it to make it more like a pro touring car:
-T56
-Del-a-lum control arm bushings
-C5 Z06 front brakes
-UMI SFC
-C6 wheels with 305's out back, I also have a set of 275s all around on factory ss wheels that are now for track duty.
-350 installed in place of the 305, the 350 was just a cheap swap from a motor that was laying around unused, it has large chamber heads, so it may be getting a GT35 soon...
-Braided Stainless steel brake hoses
-Willwood adjustable prop valve
-LS1 fuel tank with racetronix fuel pump, to eliminate fuel starvation the stock metal tanks have.
-3.42 posi, 4th gen rear with disc brakes
The car is absolutely rust free but it needs paint(its from California). I will be finishing up college soon here so the plan is to get it painted after that. Another "pro-touring" thing I have done is convert the a/c to r134a instead of tearing it all out like I have seen most people do. I'm very anal about doing things correctly and hate seeing cars that are just hobbled together. Theres many other things I could talk about but we'll save them for later.
