Question about restoring a car

[LS6 RAT]

You pose a good question. I personally like original cars the best! Here are my thoughts, an original car is one that still maintains original paint, original interior, original mechanicals, only exceptions allowed are those items that can't maintain an indefinite life, such as battery, filters, hoses, belts, tires, shocks, bulbs. I would consider a car that had these items changed to still be considered an original car.
