There is no right or wrong when it comes to restoring a car. It is a persons personal choice. Case in point ZL1 number 1. Porterfield chose to restore the car as a race car, not as it came from the factory. He stated he felt it better to leave it as raced because it was cut up. And at that point he had to choose which incarnation of the car he wanted it to look like. I have choose to restore my car to how the first owner had it with a scattersheild, traction bars, Hurst shfter, and aftermarket tach. I like and respect the history of it. The original engine is long gone and have chose to install a CE block. I have talked to many of the EXPERTS and got their input. I keep going back to this is my HOBBY, but investment potential and high dollar restorations kill the fun for the little guy like me. Just be glad it is still around
