69 Camaro Body in the Crate

[RichSchmidt]

But the makers of this body are still insisting that the entire body itself is just a "replacment panel" to repair rust damage.As I have stated before.Some repaired original cars end up with not much more then about 20 pounds of original metal clippings holding together 1000 pounds of replacment panels.When you are talking about repaired originals that needed every part expet the windshield frame replaced,how is it still an original car anyway.They repop the upper firewall panels,the frame rais and everything else.Even if you fixed an original,there is a good chance it wouldnt have any hidden VIN's when you were done.

As for rebodies,they are legal with 32 fords.A friend of mine bought a full real steel car with a rusty body and a good frame.He put a glass body on it and registered it with the VIN numebrs off the frame.That is totally legal and the DMV had no issue with it.Boyd was using VIN's on cars that didnt have even have a scrap of metal with the original VIN on them.
