That makes no sense. The frame on a lot of early corvettes rotted out and has to be replaced during a restoration.

As well as a lot of Chevelles.

But this quote from you(Fast67VelleN2O)makes sense:
&quot;I am of the personal belief that the numbers are what make a car... not the body. To each his own opinion.&quot;

Yes that is what I believe. The frame, as well as the body, in my opinion, is a replacable piece. The serial and cowl plate numbers, in my opinion, are what count. Every car received the same frame and body.... not every car received the same numbers.

Crazy analogy #1
Think of a car as a human body. The body is the skin, frame is the skeleton, heart is the powerplant and the tags are your DNA. You can have a heart transplant, your skin grafted and your DNA altered. Can you live without a skeleton?
