Original vs Correct,, New Body Acceptable?

[AutoInsane]

I think it is extremely hypocritical for a person to adamantly say that a rebody is a terrible thing yet whole heartedly support changing every body panel on the car. The idea that the same guys who turn up their noses at a rebody would happily buy a car with almost nothing original left of the body.

Now I could understand if a person were to think a car with all original sheet metal was fine and acceptable and the unacceptable was a car with any non original sheet metal.

What is the difference between a car with new fenders, hood, floors, quarters, trunk and maybe repair around the windshield and rear window and a car that has been rebodied?

You have to think one way or another: non original sheet metal is fine or it isnt.

What's next? Will the worth of a collector car be based on the percentage of original sheet metal? 'That Yenko has 64% of it's original sheet metal so it's worth more than the one with 48% of it's original sheet metal'.......
