Re: So what the hell is a survivor ?
Better would be answers to the following:
1. What should the minimum traits be? (#'s major, minor, paint) 2. What should the maximum traits be? (chalk marks, "caution" sticker  )3. What level of restoration/repair be? (sheet metal, consumables (( wtr pmp, alt, belts)) 4. Should there be "levels" of survivor?

Re: So what the hell is a survivor ?
Do you hurt the cars survivor status if you clean it up? No paint or bodywork, no new seat covers or anything like that, just clean it up with a degreaser or something along those lines.

Re: So what the hell is a survivor ?

Re: So what the hell is a survivor ?
Does this qualify as a survivor (or do I for having survived driving it at speed?) Only 7,900 original owner, miles. One of one, magazine project car.
 Or do I have to wait another decade, or two?

Re: So what the hell is a survivor ?
I think my "li'l ole lady" 67 RS/SS 350 Camaro qualifies as a survivor. Even the license plates and frames are the originals from the selling dealer:

Thanks for the kind words but sorry, no, no plans to do the nationals again any time soon. Maybe when they have a west coast version?
