ROTTING MUSCLECARS

[old5.0]

I suupose you could do that if you're the one who took the numbers off the car. When you're the guy stuck with a VIN-less hull, it limits your options. I don't know about the rest of the country, but the junkyards around here are full of neat cars that have been totally stripped of numbers. Which is why I think that there are more "built" cars around than anyone realizes. And it isn't just Chevrolets.

As for building a car around a set of tags, I guess if the 'Vette guys know it's going on and are cool with it, that's their deal. Here's how I feel about it.

In 2001, I bought several cars out of a field. Included in the deal was an extremely rough AAR Cuda. The car had been wrecked, stripped, and left to rot. There literally wasn't a salvagable square inch of metal left on the car, and any usable parts had long since been taken. I sat on the car for a couple of months, trying to think of a way to save it, but the only conclusion I could come up with was "re-body". So I pulled the tags, melted them down with a torch, and sent what was left to the crusher.

Some cars should be allowed to die, but that's just my opinion.

illegal and ever more "accepted"

they SHOULD die as stated above, but when there are $$$$$$ involved it seems common sense takes a back seat

OMG what a crime; I am a Shelby freak and would have killed to find something like that.
