It goes something like this if I remember correctly.
Restoring one to ORIGINAL is less expensive than Modifying one. Modifying one cost more money because of all the mods and will therefore bring more money. I see his point. Staying original has its strong points and less headaches than modifying because once a piece is modified, the next piece is too....and so on.
For me personally, I use what I have on hand. I've never "clipped" a vehicle BUT....if run across a basket case I do have a Camaro front clip, a rear end and a 283 engine on the engine stand. All ready for one that is already screwed up.
As Homer said, there are a lot of variables.... so love what you do and just do it. | | |
