I'll throw away all my cool NOS and vintage Day 2 parts that I have and have been saving all these years. No one wants to be called a clone day 2 and these parts are basically junk now.

All barn find day 2 cars from this point forward must now be restored with firewall pounded in in around dizzy if car is found with an HEI. All fuses found wrapped in aluminum foil must be rewrapped in aluminum foil. Wires for stereo equipment or fuel pump that are pushed between fuse and fuse holder must be duplicated. Front bowl of holley carb must be beat to death with screwdriver or 9/16 open end wrench if found that way and sheet metal screw must still be installed to make secondaries mechanical. Bent extended shackles have to be reused along with one bent leaf spring and traction bars that are bent or have holes wallered out or have slight curb or road rash.... if factory paint runs and over spray are being duplicated than this new fangled category of the &quot;hobby&quot; must also be exact in all areas.... don't forget to duplicate all the holes in the floor that were drilled for a bench to bucket swap or the parts purchased that were made to fit but weren't ever for that car to begin with....

You're forgetting the jagged-unevenly cut shifter tunnel, White paint underneath, and red/orange paint on the rear drums......

Dude, don't forget the zig zag papers, roach clips, and beer tabs.

Hope they don't start doin DNA tests on the &quot;love stains&quot; in the back seats. Could get ugly for some original owners.

BTW Fred did have period correct zig zag papers in his glove box. We found a bunch in the H/O Nova that we reatored a few years ago, and since he had a date coded PBR case, he had to have the papers. That outta be an extra points thingy. (big smile)
