63 RestoMod Versus Restoration

[BorisMD]

Interesting thread.

I'm about to embark on a '59, and I'm really leaning to the restomod. The car I have is not matching numbers, and will need major work anyway, so I'd prefer a fun driver.

So, How to decide if I go for a new frame/chassis or just keep the old and go with a crate engine? Man, those new chassis picks are uber tempting....

Regards,

Boris
