No need for this to get out of shape, but you guys have to admit to me one thing....in 1968,69,70 etc. how long did the smog, and small 14" (steel) wheels, and little tires, and the 5 pound radiator fan etc really stay on these cars? Your right, about a week. GM only put the minimum on these cars because they didn't want to spend the money on the show room floor when they knew EVERYBODY changed to more performance equipment. The potential from these cars were there, it was up to the owner to get it out of them. Day 2 is more acceptable than all the original junk that came on these cars. We would think that the guy that owned a muscle car in the early days a dork if he didn't change all that stuff right away. I say keep all that original stuff on your shelves, but make the car what it really was intended to do. Go fast and be dependable!
