				 Re: Why restore?? 
 
			
			This is the same as a Shelby 427 clone or even an old 32 ford coupe clone. If I had a Shelby, got into an accident and wiped out the body and frame, I then get an aftermarket frame, drop on an aftermarket body, put in the rear,hook up the nom 427 and nom trans that was in the original car and Wala! I fixed my original Shelby or did I? would it still be a Shelby? the only original part is the rear? you decide.
 The problem is that they are Marketing it as "REPLACEMENT PARTS" which is wrong.
 I was recently at Hershey and saw a Duesenburg that had 40,000 hours of resto time, I was thinking I could build that car from scratch and manufacture all the parts myself in a lot less time than that, But it would not be a Duesenburg, it would be a Sammy Special! and im sure the duesenburg would sell for alot more money than the Sammy even though they are identical.
 Half the fun of restoring a car is trying to find the parts.
 They should call it a different name and they might do alot better, people would still want the car style and wouldnt be afraid to modify it.jmho.
