78 Cutlass Supreme Brougham Questions

I just acquired a 1978 Cutlass Supreme Brougham. It is not running and needs a lot of work. I have started to make a TODO list. I plan on doing a full restoration from head to toe. Looking to see if there are any good websites where I can find item such as exterior and interior trim to brake and fuel lines.
Thank you in advance for any help provided!!

Welcome to C.O. That era of car hasn't had a good following. Most of the mechanical pieces can be had at the local auto parts. You may be able to get a few items from G body parts.com FYI IIRC that is really a W body

A donor car would be the best way to go. Or e-bay?

1978 thru 1981 are A-Bodies not "W"

Welcome to the site... If you really plan on investing a lot of effort into your Cutlass, I strongly recommend that you purchase a Chassis Service Manual and a Fisher Body Manual... It will help make your task much easier...
