Re: Original vs Correct,, New Body Acceptable?
No rebody is acceptable. I believe it is better to list the car as 'gone' rather than rebody it. If a major drivetrain item is replaced or restamped, it is no longer original drivetrain - aka; matching numbers. If an item is replaced with a properly dated, correct casting etc.... I guess you could call it 'Correct Drivetrain', but I'm not sure on that. This is subjective of course, some people are ok with switching bodies and hitting blocks, and I know it happens more times than most people are aware, but it's just not for me.
