Original stock or souped up?

Monday, June 18th, 2007

As a long-time gear guy, I’ve come to really enjoy and appreciate the old cars, the ones that have been fully restored to previous glory and also those RODS that have been souped up or, as the young folks say, tricked out.

This weekend, at the Back to the 50s blow out, I’m looking forward to seeing plenty of both. But I’m wondering if those folks who are actually involved in car projects would like to speak up on behalf of either side. Is it more work to do a restore-to-original project or to soup up/trick out a vehicle?
