The numbers matching crowd have a legit concern up to a point. Any of the original rare cars are probably more valuable stock. But a generic, run of the mill production car is not now and will never be a high value car in stock form. My 68 was born with a 327 2bbl, 3speed, 10 bolt open rear, 4 wheel drum brakes. The car is a very nice rust free car but it was never going to be a collector car. So I had no second thoughts about my pro-touring build.
