Thanks for the follow up Tim! .

All personal opinions here...

I'm very interested but not in agreement with the way things have 'progressed' in the 'Vette world and feel badly that without debate and prevention now, these same 'systems' ultimately will land here with the rest of the Chevy hobby...and others. .

Again I really do appreciate your comments but can't agree that any restamps 'look great' nor condone tag-dancing or other changes whether 'detectible' or not. .

Being necessary to call someone 'in the circle' to know if parts really are original to the car or not kind've stinks too...sorry? .

Again, thanks for your sharing your knowledge of the 'Vette world but I just can't help but feel that cars with 'restoration motors' and other changes will eventually slip through the cracks and with time be considered as THE original parts...even more so if these same practises are taken up by the more common-man Chevys etc? .
