New Thread-to Be Or Not To Be?

You know the old saying: "If it aint broke, fix it anyway!"
I say customise, radical or subtle its up to you.
When I was searching for a project I found a car that was ready to be restored, I passed on it because I could bring my self to modify a restorable car. Then found a car that had already been started by someone and they had lost interest. I figured since this car could never be original anyway I'm still "saving" it by hotrodding it.
Unless its low volume, matching numbers or historically significant I say hot rod it to your hearts content. After all its only metal.
