    How do the board members feel about the replicas being constructed either by hand, with a faithful tubular frame design, or from the fiberglass body conversions? I've seen a couple Corvette/Daytona repliocas that were nice, but the corvette cokpit was a little too cushy for my taste.

    BTW--- I'm the new guy here...

    Most people here don't like replicas unless there just a rebody with all original Ferrari parts. Don't mention the kit car ferraris there taboo.

    Even then, bad idea. Replicas = fakes.

    What about a 308 to 288 GTO conversion? I don't have a problem with it as long as it's done correctly. Some of Norwoods cars are done very well.
