Fake Yenko Beats Real Yenko in show

[Steve Shauger]

Like any car there are certain degrees of originality. To me the more original, the more valuable. I personally place a higher value on a survivor car than a restore car because with a survivor you know its true condition and what is original and what was replaced. Once a car is restored all the sins of the past are hidden unless you have a well documented disassembly and reassembly process. Cars that have a suspect past usually are uncovered in one way or another, and thanks to a site like this they are exposed for what they are or aren't.

Clones, tributes and now know as recreations certainly have a place. I am concerned that the really correct clones can or will be passed off as legit at some point. This is also the case for rebodied cars passed off as original.
