I purchased my first Milano 2 years ago, drove it for a year till the Clutch Pivot ball Broke, I sold the car. Once again I own the same car, I cant spend much time driving it due to the fumes from either from the oil burning off the engine, or maybe it is exhuast gas. The Car is somewhere between restoring and racing. Suggestions? ALSO, I am looking for any information I can find about Body Kits, bumpers etc. any info would or sources welcome. thanks.

It takes a lot of money to restore. Don't waste your time. Race it.
If you want a good car, just buy a good one which somebody has done up. There was one Verde with a 164S spec engine in CA. It also has 16" wheels, suspension work done, working A/C etc, for $3.2K. Nobody bought it, I don't know why. Maybe the mileage was high, but the engine is relatively quite young, and is a California car.

If it's a money issue, racing is not cheaper than restoration. If you like the type of car, just buy one in reasonable condition in the first place and keep the one you got for spare parts.
