I guess Sports-Car guys really are smarter....

I've said it until I'm blue in the face and I've written to every Buff Magazine editor I can think of and implored them to stop glorifying the idiots who butcher rare, classic Iron with modern Fuel-Injected engines. What kills me is it's never a beater '72 Malibu or a '75 Firebird-it's always a for-real numbers-matching '68 4-speed SS396 Chevelle or a 1970 Judge that some asshole has stuffed an LS motor and a 4L80E in!! Some bonehead had done this to a Split-Window 1963 Stingray!!  The reason I think Sports-car guys are smarter-is you NEVER see a 1965 Jaguar XKE with a supercharged 5.0 liter V8 out of a 2009 XKR. You NEVER see a 1969 Porsche 911S with the engine and tranny out of a 2013 Cayman!  You don't see restored Datsun 240Z's with the engine and tranny out of a 2012 370Z.  You might see some upgrades-wider wheels with modern ZR rated tires, Koni Shocks,Weber Carbs, performance exhaust systems-but their period correct for the cars. Motorcycle enthusiasts are the same. You never see a 1965 Harley Sportster with a 2010 Buell fuelie motor and six-speed tranny. You never see a 1969 Honda CB750 with the engine and tranny out of a 1990 Hurricane. You never see a 1973 Kawasaki Z1 with a 2012 Ninja powertrain. You buy something old because it's different from what's new. You wouldn't buy a WWII vintage .45 and put laser sights on it would you?  Any how-apparently sports car guys are smarter because they don't desecrate vintage iron. Mastermind
