While I'm not the biggest fan of clones or tributes or whatever one wants to call them these days, I have learned over the years to give people a pass to make whatever car brings them happiness. That is the ultimate goal of this hobby - to make something cool and enjoy it. I'm certainly not going to throw any shade here, the quality of the work looks wonderful. Great cars!

That said, with so many GTOs, Judges, and T/As (authentic and cloned alike) at car shows, I actually find myself being more interested in the more basic models, which tend to be more rare since most have gone to the big crusher in the sky. Color me weird, but I really appreciate a well preserved or restored base model Tempest or 6-cylinder Firebird, etc. It takes a special kind of owner to invest in those cars, and you just don't see them very often because of it.
