First Generation Firebird-L Mailing List ......................................................................... Yes, I do like stirring the pot. I myself love being made to sit up in my chair any type rather than read ho-hum posts...
This one is the most fun. No clear answer. One that is certainly not covered by magazines or chop cut rebuild. I would rather see a re-bodied rare car... than see it crushed on principle -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Brent Block Sent: Sunday, December 20, 2009 11:39 PM To: First Generation Firebird-L Subject: RE: [FGF] -HIJACKED 69 TA First Generation Firebird-L Mailing List ......................................................................... Joe, You are such a S#&t disturber...lol But you guys bring up what could be the debate of our generation.... and I'm referencing "car gen" not the age of this group.(-; What to some people is acceptable restoration practices may be considered fraudulent by others. Where is the line these days? and really,.. who cares? It's all about the love of our birds guys! I enjoy hearing about and viewing every variation of restoration, whether it be a concourse, resto-mod, full race,... whatever the owner's fancy, Just the time , money and memories these vehicles create for us is invaluable, as is the varied opinions we are free to share on this forum. If your willing to spend the time and money it takes to save another first gen firebird from the bone yard, you have gained my respect! I value everyone's input on this list and have amassed incredible knowledge by listening to your threads. For that I am very grateful. My best wished to everyone for a Merry Christmas and smooth cruising in the New Year.

I just want to know where the line is. How much of the car has to be repaired or replaced before it stops being the original car ? Two inches from the vin tag ? two feet ? the whole cowl ? like I said. Now-a-days, you can replace every piece of sheet metal. So, one piece at a time or one fell swoop ? Nothing against you. I still say if that complete rotted 'one of....' car was sitting in front of you with a clean pain-jane ready to use as the replacement ... it would get done.
