Default Re: Engine Harness rebuild

Bill, I know you said "almost" and took note of that. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggthumpup.gif[/img] The "surivor" thing is a pet peeve of mine because I think it diminishes the rarity of the truly unrestored cars. I was involved in judging in the "Bow Tie" class in the NCRS and it is really amazing to see an unrestored car that has been maintained as close to its original state as possible. These guys go to great lengths to preserve what is left of original finishes and components so we can learn what these cars were originally like when new. My comments are not meant to detract from cars like yours that have one or more areas unrestored, I love those cars too. I found an original paint/original interior 7,000 mile '67 Z-28 last year and never referred to it as a "survivor" because it had been detailed underhood. I just think the term "survivor" should be reserved for those which have been spared the "fluffing". Since you used the term "almost" I assume you argee with me [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/beers.gif[/img]
