? about Day 2 mods...

I personally think the day 2 mods are cool..hence my original question. I am only 32, but have been very fortunate to have owned or own a bunch of very rare musclecars. Unfortunatly when I was younger it was the first "go around," of the "boom," so I witnessed more cars being restored to facory specs. What I have noticed is that more and more people are looking for ways to diffentiate their cars from others' at shows, so the "factory," look is being seen less and less. I think the great price increases in both restoration cost and "orginal/NOS" parts (looked at the price on "437" distributors lately..)prices have also contributed to fewer people spending the money on "concourse" restorations. It would be neat to have a completely correct (as it left the factory) musclecar. However unless it is very rare, the cost prohibits many people from doing so, especially when just the restoration cost can exceed 45k. The "day 2," look can allow a pretty correct musclecar (one having most of its' original components) to be restored, while still being reasonable. Also since musclecars "like" headers, deeper gears, lighter wheels, bigger cams, carbs, etc. the cars actually run better, and are more fun to drive. Also modern technology can be incoporated into them allowing them to run on todays' fuel.
