Rebodied cars and do they get certified

[PeteLeathersac]

Nobody on the firewalling question? . The cowl w/ tags as the only original part left is an old one in the car hobby....extensive restorations starting from no more than this is what some expensive Bugatti's, Duesenbergs and the like have been brought back from. . The've usually had to fabricate the other components though, not having the luxury of a mass produced donor car. . Usually all is well documented and the story is up front and available when sale time comes. . I'll go out on a limb and say, if not using a whole cowl w/ door posts and grafting "enough" of a vehicle to move the identity without disturbing the Vin tag and hidden Vin is what firewalling is, than this is where the line gets crossed. . Again anyone can do what they like but with the values now, the buyer should be aware in writing with any of the situations suggested. ~ Pete
