The fact of the matter is that there was only certain number built, some survived, alot didn't. If you wanted one as a kid, but couldn't afford one, why not build it yourself?

Some of the most valuable muscle cars were actually conversions anyway. I bet Carole Shelby and Don Yenko felt guilty about cutting up new cars on their way to the bank.

Unless you're going to Pebble Beach or going for The Bloomington Gold, what's it really matter.

You kidding right? What Shelby ,Yenco, Baldwinn did was make a product that the factory wouldn't make. They wernt trying to make a copy of someone else's car.

I highly doubt they were laughing all the way to the bank since yenko cars were not that much more than the factory cars. They didnt go crazy till 30 plus years later.
