To me, a special welded on plate, or a special piercing, hole, etc... makes the body different. We're probably splitting hairs here, as my head is starting to spin with this discussion. We go through this about once or twice a year!

Yes, but at least we can discuss it without dropping into fighting, and I know when we as a group have had good discussions without being married to an opinion, I have learned several points and even modified my opinion on others. Guess it is like they say, it's the journey thats fun.

Whoa Midas! The point in my last post was about how we can disagree without name calling! Please post your point as to why you disagree, and let the other guys make theirs. I think there are plenty more points to be made on both side, without the name calling IF you meant it that way. Sometimes it's hard to tell when someone is kidding or really putting someone down. I use the to show that I am foolin, and not putting someone down. My .02 anyway.

I have no idea what you are talking about with this post

[69LM1]

I *think* the thought was that I was talking about structural issues, and these were "add ons". I still don't see any differences on the bodies from fischer.

For example, could you have taken a 6banger off the line, and dropped all of the ZL1 stuff into it and had the same performance? I *think* the answer is yes, which was my point that it was the ZL1 (speaking in spreads from lowest performance camaros to highest) specific "changes" that made a ZL1 camaro special (or more so than)a 250 6 banger camaro. Thus, my argument that if the emphesis (big word! ) was on those ZL1 specific items, then it would have a couple of effects. 1, It would be hard to "clone" a car (X66, X33 etc) although far from impossible and 2, it would render these discussions about how many body panels are too much. Of course, all of the guys with those Z's without original drivelines would see a decrease in value, if this became reality. Those with verifiable original drivelines would see a major increase in value, as the available pool shrinks.

Just some thoughts and far from fleshed out.............

That "r-word" is one of those instant red flags that sets my little Barney Fife heart all a twitter. Like when I see Aunt Bee double parkin her Hudson in front of the fire hydrant. Gotta ticket her. Dont wanna do it, but it's my duty, Andy.
