Lot's of insight.
Being 57 years young , I have destroyed my share of original SS cars and
Z-28's
It's funny I remember two guys back in the late 60's who took off the SS
badges and 396 emblems to-be more stealth ( sleepers as they were called
thin that area) as they terrorized the local Cruz scene.
IMO it your thing do what you want.. I have owned both real SS car and a
clone cars. at present i have a set of both.
There 64's and with out the obvious trim tag and vin and the upper fender
moldings and full rocker moldings it's obvious which is which. Not as
obvious in 69 and above and with the $$ the SS type cars are bringing and if
i were to build a car for resale It sure would be a CLONE or Tribute car as
some call them...
So build all the clones you want IMO , and people must be, OPG and all the
re-pop houses are selling ton's of badges and trim parts and gauge packages
to make you plane Jane the SS you always wanted..

I am curious, how many of you would consider building a clone and what is
your age? I ask age because it seems like younger guys who build clones
see nothing wrong with it. Personally I think it takes away from original
cars, I mean you go to a show to see rare stuff and it takes the fun out
of it. I would much rather look at a dozen Malibus and one SS versus a
dozen fakes. I would bet there are more ''SS'' cars on the road now then
there ever were built originally!!
Sorry to vent, but I had to get this out of my system.
