Soooo - There's likely a "Continuous History Car" (CHC) out there somewhere. CHC is the car that continued on after the restoration and retains the continuous title history. Then there is this car, the "Original Component Car" (OCC). OCC is the car that is left after the restoration with its' title sequence inturrupted. The OCC may or may not retain the original factory frame or body stamps (depending on the location of the manufacturers factory stamping). This is an age old argument in the Cobra community (SAAC)because so many Cobras were wrecked and resurrected (either to continue their racing careers or by collectors when the values skyrocketed). Brian Anglis (AC) continued to make replacement Cobra frames and body panels (and full bodies) through the 1980s. The SAAC says that only one car (CHC or OCC) is eligible to be placed in the registry. Many legal cases have been decided with the same logic that SAAC uses. Which car do you think deserves a place in the registry?
There may be a lot of strong opinions (there were at SAAC) - which side would you come down on? There are all kinds of nuances and "what ifs", but maybe for this discussion we could just stick with this specific example of this particular Trans Am. Whaddya think?

The &quot;vehicle&quot; currently for sale on Peebait is scrap, good for parts only and should be cut up. The other car, (if one exists with the tags and numbers of the aforementioned scrap) is evidence of a felony and I hope the perps are caught.

Dead cars are DEAD.

Moving VIN tags is a crime. I don't see the gray area.
