I think they should just "brand" the ownership as a rebody, just like they do with cars that have been "totalled" in a crash. I would not consider this a "clone" or a "tribute" as it was made from a geni car. For whatever reason, it has had the body changed and the OEM VIN was place on this shell. I would say it's worth more then a clone, but not as much as a OEM COPO, somewhere in between.

I would rather see a rebody to save the car as such, a rebody of the OEM COPO or whatever, but the info should be up front. Like if the car was a total rust bucket. But at least it can be saved. Just let the market know therefore the the $$$ would reflect.

Sorry, but I don't agree with you. If I am reading correctly, the only real parts of the original car are the rearend and a piece of metal with the VIN on it. Do these parts make a $30,000 car worth $100,000 or more? I don't think so. There are clones built that have real COPO drivetrains. I would place more value to those cars than this one. JMO
