Mine is the epitome of what shouldn't be done. Clone, wrong color, Stripes on a car that didn't come with them, 10 bolt, No numbers matching anywhere. 69 chrome on a 68. Mopar shifter. It is what i want. Period.

Purist can say what they like to insult me. In the real world I already tired of saying it isn't for sale EVER. And it isn't even done yet.

If you just take your time and do a good job putting it together. It is a car show every time you stop for gas. I got people coming from all over to see what i done already. People I haven't seen in years. One of dad's friends from overseas in the service. He was visiting mom and Dad. He came with mom 25 miles just to see it. Words out here Randy building another Rag. Number 26 in a long line of these cars I have had.
Well said !!

I too built it the way I wanted. Mine is not a numbers matching car, it has bits and pieces from other cars but it is what I wanted. But I will say that I am always humbled by the people who stop to check my car out. I have won awards that have shocked me because I see the beauty in other cars. I will say that the last award from the NOCC show really, really surprised me and means a lot because it was voted on by other Chevelle owners.
