Counterfeit Cars on FABO!!!

Man, I go to Spring Fling and this thread turns into I don't know what. I'm really confused now, also. I'm really beginning to see a very fuzzy line between what is called a "rebody" and a restoration. I'm also seeing something else that kinda is weirding me out. I have seen some really amazing work being done on cars here and in person. I have seen cars brought back from the other side of the grave. Now I am hearing that these cars are not worthy of being revelled in their original form. (Example: The Hemicuda' was found in a barn and the restored to it's original form, but, the only parts of the body worth saving were the cowl, floorpan and header panel. The original motor, trans and rear were rebuilt, the front suspension restored, and all were reinstalled) Some of you folks are saying this isn't a Hemicuda' anymore? Why not just swap the VIN over and put all of your good parts on it? You are only gonna get crapped on by the peers in your hobby anyway. At least this way you could drive the car you always dreamed of having years earlier and thousands of dollars cheaper. I'll remember this thread the next time I see a burned a bowed picture of a Superbird and all of the folks that chip in that the car should be saved and restored.

Oh and someone mentioned a Camaro that got built on TV? If it's the one I had a hand in, we didn't take the title from the original car we started with. The Dynacorn bodied car got titled in AZ as a specialty construction. The original car is being built for a customer and will have it's VIN tag and title intact. Other than some inner structure, half the cowl, the A pillars and one quarter panel, most of it will be replacement metal. It will still be a Camaro. (Not like that is saying much).
