I have a clone, fake, tribute, whatever you want to call it.
Numbers matching enginge and tranny, except the 6 pak manifold. Call it what you want, but I love it.
I have people coming up all the time nad as soon as you tell them it is a 73 most of the time they say it is a fake and walk off.
No it's not a fake, just becuase it has a T/A stripe. call it what you will, I don't care. If you are that hung up on tributes, clones, etc. you aren't really in this for the hobby, you are in it for Money!
