RestoMod --- Pure Stock --- Pro Touring
« on: August 07, 2007 - 11:17:49 PM »
Im sure this is an iffy question and a lot of us have different opinions...however ALL mopars rock anyway you look at it but I guess it could depend on a couple issues...

Older people may select stock due to their era (age)...
Resto Mods are hot cause no one can afford an all original Mopar anymore...
Pro touring is cool just for a Bad A$$ custom cruiser and dont have to worry about where you rank in the streets...

Im thinking we will have a pretty level poll here???

I think it would be super cool calender cover if it showed a Resto Mod / All Stocker and Pro Touring all together... :burnout:
Man how the times have changed!

Pro touring followed by restomod followed by stock.

The only way I'd have a stock car is if it were numbers matching and highly collectible.

Well, I'm building a pro-touring 'cuda so I voted for that.
However, like you said, I love'em all. I really got the hankerin to do a pro-street-ish a-body with a roots type supercharger. I agree with the tires too. Those big meats have actually hurt performance on alot of the wild 80's creations. It used to be about a look. I know of several pro streeters that were all show but get smoked by stock 5.0 'stangs.
if you look at the 10.5" tire class they have some 8 second screamers.
