Clone Complex
My son and I are fairly recent browsers of this board and have to admit that it is a hoot to read some of the friendly banter between some of the members. We have on a number of occasions discussed the ethics of our choice to build a clone of a very special and unique car that is very desirable at this time. I speak of the 69/70 Nova Yenko. I have been justifying to myself and my son that our attempts to recreate such a unique car is basically a way to pay homage to the dreamers that developed these vehicles. We in no way attempt to pass our car off as an original and advise anyone who asks that it is in fact a Clone. My question to all you members out there is two part. 1) How many of the members on this site have or are building original Yenko/COPO/Motion etc cars, and 2) How many on this site are, like me, a clone owner that just wants to pass on the fun and mystique of muscle cars to my son and give him something that no one else in our city or province for that mater has?
I realize this is a fairly lengthy post and apologize for that but I was just wondering....
BTW Merry Christmas to all our American friends from one of the many Canadians that supports you all.
