Why I choose the restomod route.
I choose this route because I wanted to build the car my way,to make a little HOT ROD,something I wanted since I was a kid(maybe I still am!). This is what I would have ordered from the factory in 67, if I could have. Also a real factory GT these days is a little expensive,so I decided to build my own.
