PS: if my money tree blossoms I will be the second owner of a wide variety of survivor or semi-survivors :-) I would pay more for a survivor than a restored car.

And this is the reason why the faking of original cars will continue to increase. Where there is money to be made a liar, cheat and thief will try to take advantage.

Not picking on you Ryan just sayin'.

Whenever you have a rare and valuable asset there will always be someone looking to make "a silk purse from a sow's ear."

Some cars can't be faked because all that were built are accounted for. But others are ripe for the faking. Especially those that bring huge money at auctions like that 1967 L71 Corvette I posted photos of earlier in this thread for example. If the goal is to create a 6000 mile all original 1967 L71 Corvette that will sell at auction for $675,000 - that leaves a ton of money to reach that goal.
