No clones about it! Seriously though, the only &quot;original&quot; Day 2 cars in my opinion were the Baldwin Motion cars. Anything else was delivered stock and the parts were installed after the fact so they're all clones.

If I bought a 3,000 mile survivor today, and then installed vintage NOS &quot;Day 2&quot; parts, would it then technically be considered genuine Day 2 since the car was never modded until that point in time? </div></div>No I dont believe so Matt...You have to remember these were times when you made the car your own with your personality all over it like writing names and phrases on the fenders and putting the performance parts you like the best ETC I don think sammy was trying to start anything but he remembers the good ole days and us old timers who was there still likes when a genuine Day 2 car is found in a barn or old garage and brings back the memories on how we streetraced and hung out thats all..I think its a nice testamint to those who want to replicate a time gone by but theres nothing like finding a real day 2 car that was beat the snot out of and ruled the streets in your hometown...Hope im not pissing anyone off but thats how i feel.. </div></div>

That's ridiculous Don. You're cutting down current generations and those yet to come who live and breath this stuff. The original day-2 cars are near impossible to find as is. Classifying good, honest cars turned into a &quot;day-2&quot; car today as clones because they were not such when new is asinine. I'm surprised more folk on this site who frequent this section of the forum are not offended.
