Funny how things come full circle. I remember decades ago the antique car guys and hot rodders were at odds over the rodders chopping and modifiying nice orig '20, '30s and '40's aniques and classics.

Who ever thought the same thing would happen with Camaros??!!!

The car was priced - it'll cost someone $59,500 to save it. Granted, it's high for a 6 Cylinder convertible, but how many 1 owner/P-O-P cars are left. Sure wish it'd get saved, I just cant afford to be the one to step up...

Does anyone here know of anybody using one of the Dynacorn bodies ? We've all seen the mag articles and the TV shows but who has actually bought one? It would be nice to hear from an unbiased user on how usable they are.....Maybe more decent Camaros will suffer the same fate as this 69 because of issues with the new body's...Is it more cost effective to rebuild a junk Camaro than to buy a new repro body ?????.....For as long as they've been out, I felt I would have heard or read about more being used.....

Last year in Carlisle my brother and I were looking at the display body they had there, and when i asked the guy who is actually buying them, he told us "alot of guys with Yenkos and COPOs are buying them and building clones to drive so they don't have to take out their real cars that are too nice to drive." I called his bluff and told him I knew of no Yenko owners that had any plans to build a reproduction clone of their car to drive. When I asked for some names he said he couldn't tell me who "all these people" were... that was a year ago, and I still don't know of anyone building one.

Thanks Joe...That's my point...With the internet and the vast info at our fingertips......Who's got one? Or is it the fact they are doing a rebody keeping them silent?

Did you look at the body they had in carlisle? Anyone doing a rebody with one of those aint gonna be hiding anything from anybody for too long.
