Nah...I'm just kidding. My dad has a 67' firebird sport (mint) he bought a couple years ago 33,000mi, completely original right down to the tires. The original owner died & left it to his sister, who put only 50 mi on it in 10 years, then my dad bought it. Still has the original books & paperwork in it from the dealership, in fact it was a local car, built here in lordstown. I hate to say what he's gonna do w/ it, but it won't be original anymore ...
I still have the VIN to my camaro if I ever get the bug & extra $$$...
Foolish mistake ...keep the car original it's probably worth 10x what it was new Find a $1,000 car less motor and trans and hack that up. Crazy to hack up an original car in that condition...why somebody alt to take him out back behind the tool shed and teach him a lesson
At least talk him into selling it to a collector for some big $$$ and then he'll have the cash to build a hot rod or whatever his plan is.
I also know exactly where my old Firebird is and if I decide I want it back it's there for me. Also if the guy decides to sell it he will contact me first.
