I have no interest in judged Car Shows. I go to Cruises. Friendlier crowd.
My vin is always covered and my fender tag is in the glovebox. My car is so obviously 90% NOT original but occasionally some one would lean on it to read the tag or vin.
People take pictures all the time. I don't care.
They never ask first. I don't care.
They never ask if it is all original. I don't care.
If it was a restored original 440 6pk Cuda it would be worth 10 times as much. I don't care.
Starting to see a pattern here? It's my car not thiers.
The confused look on their face when they walk up and don't see what they expect - priceless.
It wasn't original when I bought it and it won't be when/if I sell it
If I have offended any anal numbers guys,. Yep you guessed it, I don't care.
