Is there some kind of important difference that I don't see between starting with a basket case 914/6 body and buying up every piece of sheetmetal that Restoration Design makes to stitch together a new car versus getting basically the same if not more original sheetmetal from a donor body? How little of the original needs to be replaced for it to still be legit?

Is there some kind of important difference that I don't see between starting with a basket case 914/6 body and buying up every piece of sheetmetal that Restoration Design makes to stitch together a new car versus getting basically the same if not more original sheetmetal from a donor body? How little of the original needs to be replaced for it to still be legit? That is my point. The law frowns on guys stealing cars and swapping vins. We are restoring cars not swapping vins on stolen cars. If you legitimately own a car and purchase a donor legally and use parts to complete a restoration where is the fowl? In the end you save a limited production car with common parts made at the factory. Not that reproduction parts are any less legitimate. Lots of ways to look at it. I say if you do not have the tolerance it takes to save what is left of an otherwise dwindling number of rare cars don't get involved in it. |
