Kinda with Gerry on that one, i voted Who cares.. Seemed the most fitting of: To each their own. Most of our cars are resto's anyway, after 32 years, there is parts in my car NOT from the factory :ugh:L and the paint job isnt quite what Chevy put on there originally.. (/Sarcasm!)..I voted ,"yes". I remember a quote from Samuel L. Jackson when he was asked why act in the new chapters of Star Wars? And I am paraphrasing here, but he said,'It is not Hamlet...you know? It is not Hamlet!' And what he meant was that hey, why not? It is a job, and it is as an actor, and he just loves to act.
Not all Corvettes were destined to be the coveted model. For example, take any C3 model from 1976 - 1982. Thousends were sold, and very few were limited or special in some original fashion as marketed by GM. A restomod could really make that corvette a nice piece of machinery for fun, collecting, or just to invest in.
Naturally, I would just have a restomod done on a Vette if her original identity is lost (engine, tranny, or even accesories). Otherwise, the sky is the limit.
GerryLP:cool
But in these cases above: If thats what you want, sure, why not. Though i am NOT a fan of shredding an original, with all parts, car. If it was a shell before, why not do something with it.. They sure as hell look like fun.
