what are you gonna do NZ if someone says is that a factory block..... :burnout:

Like I said in any and all of my posts about my car, it's a custom build, simple.  :2thumbs:
Custom can be anything from small to big mods. Some customs are simple (like mine) others are all out wild.

Mine will be stock appearing with hidden modern upgrades. It will also have a custom fender tag with the bare basics: "1971 Plymouth 540 Hemi Cuda 5-Speed". If they have trouble figuring out that it's a custom car (non #'s) from looking at the tag, the EFI, and the few other items in the engine bay then if they do ask that question, they won't even really care if it is a factory block or not, those who know, will know and not need to ask.

Of course I was only joking about the Fake comment-clone,copy or re-creation would be more accurate for a 100% factory stock lookalike.

  :clueless: say i have a 69 road runner and i have badge callouts that says 440 six pack,air grabber etc...i have all this original eguipmnet installed my self.lift up the hood and everythings there.why would this be a fake,it is what the badging says it is.  :dunno:  :stirpot:

If it is made to look exactly like a factory 440-6 pak car but is origially a 383 car then yes it has a 440-6 engine and all the rest of the parts but it is not an ORIGINAL car,therefore it is a clone or whatever you want to call it.If I print out a picture of the Mona Lisa off the computer from the internet is it worth 10 million dollars,no it is a copy not the real thing.
