Yup this is why chevys bring so much cash comparatively. No one knocking the high sales, clones, remakes, rebodies, they cheer them on, make excuses for changes, clones everything because they know a happy buyer after the fact helps keep the prices up. That’s why restamps in corvette world are commonplace and no one cares. Because the more happy owners the more value cars continue to have. I have a friends who love Pontiacs but do 90 percent chevies and vettes for in their collections. Easier to restore, easier to sell, A guy buys a Pontiac at auction it gets picked to death after, think he’s gonna buy more? Nope. Says screw this I’ll do another Chevy and be happy.

Not saying one way or the other is right, just saying very different mentality between owners. So far the Chevy set has profited handsomely from it.
