My point is, this has been going on in the open for a long time.

I would say that there are very few here that are unaware that restamping has been going on for decades and how prevalent hammered parts are.

I haven't been here long enough to know what the general membership is like. I am 59 years old and have been involved in the hobby for 40 years.
I have seen a lot of things evolve in those 40 years. We currently have a 2nd and the beginnings of a 3rd generation of guys in the hobby from when I got involved.
I can say that some of the younger guys have a very unrealistic idea of how things were when these old cars were new. I sometimes have to chuckle at their thoughts that these old muscle cars got some kind of special treatment when they were built. They were just another sales commodity as far as the manufacturers were concerned. However, today some seem to think that they were treated anything differently than a new station wagon.
