I agree with your view Kim. A car that has a motor swapped later on whether it was a dealer installed warranty swap or just an engine swapped in isn't the same thing as a dealer transplant when new. But who are we to say where the value really is, it's up to the buyers and what they're looking for. Paperwork on any kind of swap is a must and will obviously add value. But plain and simple, it's the history of the car and you wouldn't restore it back to status it was when the original motor was blown or swapped. These cars seem to be the toughest to categorize and put value on. Still cool cars, no matter what.
