Vette(s): 1969 COUPE CORTEZ SILVER, BRIGHT BLUE INTERIOR 383 cu. in. 512 HP. Hooker headers w/ side pipes PS PS AC AM FM STEREO. 68,000.MILES C5 5oth Anniversary Coupe , auto.350hp

I voted both.

although I have no intention of modifying the body, GM did that perfectly.Nor would I change the interior except maybe a color change. And that can be reversed easily enough. When it comes to drive train,That`s a different story. Why replace with old technology when you can upgrade to better handling and performance( unless of course you a purist and want to go for Bloomington Gold etc).

I kept my original #`s block,heads,tranny,rearend, but modified all for performance.

Again this is my car and I`m building the Corvette hot rod I always wanted.

No one has ever told  me., your car is nice but it is not originaL.

Enjoy your car and do what you want with it.

Vette(s): 1976 restored,new interior,custom paint(purple),body kit,rebuilt engine,trans,upgraded sound system

I like original vettes, custom vettes, old vettes, new vettes, I like

all vettes and could be happy with just about any vette, but I

purchased a custom vette because it was a little different and had a

unusual color, but mostly i liked the looks. its all a matter of personal

preference
