I think the different viewpoints in the last few posts are based in the each individual's differing philosophy of ...
A. Am I building this for myself, don't plan to sell it ever, so don't care about resale, want to build something unique ... and probably became a teenager & fell in love with cars during this era.
-or-
B. I building (or buying this car) for myself ... AND want it to be popular & bring high value when I sell ... and probably don't like cars from this era.
I'm a tweener on those two viewpoints. I'm 50 & love those styles from the 70's, because I grew up with them ... along with 50's hot rods & 60's muscle cars.
I wouldn't build a mid 70's PT car for myself. While I like "unique" ... I want to be able to sell it at some point & build my next project.
But I love to see other people build unique car models with TLC & flair ... and of course ... real G-machine type of performance.
Our individualism is what makes hot rodding & car building so interesting.
