To be honest, who cares! The only way to tell a real car from a fake is to check all the numbers and to have documentation. Most average car show people don't know what to look for when it comes to COPO's. Just tell them its "real" and that ends the questioning or the guys who like to give a hard time. </div></div>
I agree totally. Build what <span style="font-weight: bold"><span style="text-decoration: underline">You</span></span> want. It's your car. I once saw a sign in a car window at a show. IIRC it went this way: "To my Critics: If you're checking, none of the numbers match and I don't care. I built this car my way for me. I like it and thats all that matters. Have a good day
"
By the way, I could never (ever) afford a "real" car on the $$$ I make. I have a reasonably equipped shop with a pretty good collection tools and I really like working on my own stuff. My only option is to build away, and like the guy with the car show sign, I build stuff for me. That's what is important. Not what others think.
Take care man. And for one, I'd like to see progress on your build. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/beers.gif[/img]
