If you draw a line between Stock & Rock and Restomods, I thought I would try to give both sides something to think about...
While it boils the purest's blood to see these cars modified, keep in mind, they just happen to be driving up the value of your classic $.
Most of the stock & rock guys have been in this for a long time and have plenty to offer. Just as long as you guys do your best to give assistance with respect and not sarcasm, the return respect should be given. I'm pretty sure we're all adults here although sometimes it's tough to tell.
The preservation of rare cars should be just understood! Even still, you can lead a horse to water but you can't make it drink!
The Mod guys are here to have fun, be unique and inject the latest technology into these classic icons. Most can't afford to buy a thoroughbred up front. But in time, they can end up with a nice classic rod that will out gun and out corner some of the best past or present.
Although it's more of a recent craze, the Mustang Restomod is not a fad! Ford and the rest of the world are stuck on turning out modern restos. Just look at the 2005 concept, the T-Bird, the PT Cruiser etc.
The reason why people are so passionate about this debate is it gets right down to the core of why you own a Mustang. Some are re-living their past dream cars, some are making dream cars. Whatever you choose to do is what defines, and drives you.
"Try to open your minds to see inside peoples dreams, not crush them."
