What does 'Survivor Car' Mean?
The term has been bashed and torn apart from one end to the other and thousand think they know what a true survivor is.In fact,a survivor car/truck is a un-restored car/truck with little to NO mods or body mods,which includes,paint,body panels,interior,exterior,drive train,the car has to be as original as possible,with regular maintenance,to keep it running and road safe.Now the problem,what you think and I think on a topic is two different worlds,and that,s where the problem starts.A all original car with factory rusted off fenders and floors and doors and still sporting the original paint,this is not a survivor,it,s a piece of ****,trying to screw some one into paying big bucks for it.A real deal survivor is a car that can pass a state/province inspection with flying colors,and a road test to prove it.Is there cars that have survived 40-50+ years,YES,that are untouched,but are they road worthy????? after 50 years.Be very careful of some one stating that it is a true survivor car unless you know the person or have seen the car,or some one that has seen the car,and they have some type of knowledge of the car.The car I post with this topic is a barn find and is the survivor i found some 3 hours from me,thats is still sporting the original piant-interior-exteriot-drivetrain,the hole deal,with the papers to prove it.And paper work is the king in this sport of muscle cars,mrmopartech
