Hot Rodder or Purist?

I said way back in the 80s. one day people will be making street rods out of 60s muscle cars.
The came the resto mod.
Not sure exactly WTF pro street was!
I have restored many, but I tend to agree with the guy that said " anyone can restore a car, not everyone can build a hot rod"!! ha

Like the cowboy said "some can rope a 300 lb steering in the 150 x 300 ft arena, not everyone can rope a 1500 lb. mad as hell cow running down a steep hill in a 500 ac. pasture"! ha again
