Default Re: Fake Yenko Beats Real Yenko in show

That kind of stuff happens here in Canada as the east has stricter laws on used cars than alberta does and they flog alot of their garbage on us. Over the last few years it has benn getting better.
As far as the clone thing goes if you really want to look at it. If back in 69 the foundry is pouring the steel into the moulds and stamping out Camaro bodies with no designationas to weather they become yenkos or 6 banger grocery getters the "DNA" of all these cars are then the same, so what difference would it make to rebody a car with doner or nos parts?. I guess what im saying is at what point in the cars life does it officially become a collectable supercar?. 67-68 there was no difference from other cars of the same ilk coming out of the factory until they reached the dealership and suddenly the value triples!! And at that point just why is it that it stands out of the crowd and is "that" what we're here to preserve, i mean is'nt that why this board was created to preserve these cars?. Or is it the idea of these cars? To keep the lines clear on just what and where these cars are today so that the great unwashed know the difference and enjoy themselves whatever it is that they own?. Are we just being snobs to everyone else who dosent have a real supercar, or we just trying to keep things honest?.
