When restoring a classic, what direction do you go. I like the numbers matching restored paint oldie but goodie to rumble down the strip. Yes a head turner. Some chose to rip the guts out and drop the heaviest hitting road ripper they can. Does this devalue the car or help out the sticker price? If a tree falls in the woods does anyone hear it. I say I depends who you ask and what demographic your in. I won't get into details on that, but ask your self is it the looks? Or is it the "Ball Buster" your looking for. When restoring a classic or modern day ride remember its a investment in you and your car. Chose wisely you will!

The land before time.
This rear engine car was made with a purpose. NOT TO RUST! The DeLorean is made of 100% stainless steel. The DeLorean was known for it roll in the Back to the Future, but also as a engineering masterpiece. Everything from the gull wing style doors to the half window; rear engine design.

GTO to Go
I lot of older cars, like this GTO, have drum brakes in the front and rear of the car. If installed and adjusted correct this type of braking system can work very good! On the other hand alot of these cars didnt not have the luxury of having Anti Lock Brakes or ABS. In this case the harder you push the pedal the faster you stop. Of course that holds true for every car.
