SSP's "Not buildable" ?????
Hey guy's, I've got a question for ya'll. I've read in several post on this and other forums, about some SSP's that were determined to be "Not buildable". Ok, I can see if they were just coupes or even just 5.0 coupes ,and were wrecked (or rusted) severely... I don't know how many of you fool with foxes other than ssp's, but I personaly have bought 5 nice titled GT hull's over the last couple years that were used as donor cars for 4cyl coupe conversions. My point is, everyone seems to want a 5.0 coupe, and what better example (or rarer) of that than the SSP's??? Should'nt they all be saved even if it means using structural panels from donor 4cyl cars? Even clipping one would be better than letting it disapear and become a kia? I not saying you should do this and pass it off on someone unsuspecting. But if it was done right (and yes there is a right way)and if you did ever sell it, you were up front and honest about it, wouldn't that be better than losing it forever? The FHP car I just purchased is hit very hard in the front. I've not had time to evaluate it just yet, but if it is "Not repairable" I will clip it to save it. I also know that most hobbiest can't take on a job like this and hardly anyone can afford to have this type of work performed, but they are people out there that can, and would do this for the love of these cars. I'm one of them!!! So before It's deemed "not repairable" and stripped of it's tag's and identity, should'nt we see if someone is willing to tackle it? I'd really just like to know your opinions on this...
