Re: Is "stance" important?
 

yes my car is a copy,tribute,clone or whatever they call them these days. When I painted it I had no idea the original was still around. Found out later. When I was in high school I picked up the latest hot rod magazine (to read in class of coarse..) and fell in love with that car. I started with a 25,000 mile original cortez silver Z28. It still has the original seats ,door panels,carpet ect.. The DZ motor sits on a stand in my shop. My youngest is a sophomore in high school. Heres his high school car.. He drives it every day! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/pics...ustinsgas2.jpg

Well folks, since I started this thread, I'm going to try and be the 500,000 view to this thread with my latest SuperCar Stance. Guess I'll need to watch this like a hawk as we only have 290 to go.....

To the owner of the silver '69 Camaro.....in your case I like the term "duplicate" as it in no way harms the idea of your theme. You are 100% honest in the description and personally, I applaud you for doing so. IMO, "clone" "recreation" "tribute" seem to mean that only a portion of the original is being represented. Often times cars are advertised as "clones" or such, when the only thing in common with the original is perhaps a stripe kit. Sorta like a SBC '69 Camaro or Chevelle with Yenko stripes. I like to use the term "imposter" when a car is restored and represented as a true model (LS-6, W-30, W-31, SS, Z/28) and then scrutinized by educated "car guys" and exposed as a fake. I'm getting a little "long in the tooth" here, but I really wanted to make my point on the presentation regarding the gorgeous multi-hued Camaro above.
And Jeff, a big THANKs for starting this thread....one of the best!!!!
And YES, STANCE IS IMPORTANT!!!

How's this for stance? I had one very similar to this that my brother gave me when I turned 16 and he reinlisted in the Air Force. I am currently looking for another 54 Chev so that I can replicate the car.

Boy -- those had to be a handful on the big end. I had a 49 Anglia w/SBC and an old 4sp Hydra-Matic -- when changing gears at WOT it was hard tellin' where it was going! TAZ
