The original car builders, bands, whatever, CREATED and INVENTED what others feel compelled to copy..you can never take that away from them, good or bad they thought of it first and took a chance that it would work. Tributes and copys, even if better, are only improving on someone elses original ideas with little or no originality and risk...
If you put up a beat up old original Yenko against a mint Yenko clone and tried to sell them for the same money what percentage of the people would want the copy? I bet not many..
How about having a partied up Aerosmith playing next door to a polished up tribute band that copy there songs perfectly and charge the same for tickets, which place would be full?
The only time a tribute and copy come into play is if the original can not be had. period.
