Re: Question about Stock Restorartions?

Its getting pretty expensive to do one even with relatively easy to source parts, much less with all the numbers. Even in high dollar circles of Cuda's and Vettes, "tribute" cars are bringing real good money when they are built right. Cars with new fuel injected engines also are real popular - if the engine / transmission can be completely wrong and bring the money, then what's the incentive other than knowing it's as original as can be?

I respect the originals very much, and admire the people that can hunt all the stuff down. I try to do that myself on occasion, but I find it snowballs and I have to stop myself from spending so much I'm upside down on the truck it's ridiculous. It also chaps me a bit to get one redone so nicely I don't want to use it.
