    I think if you read between the lines, the message here is not to pay too much for the car, so as to protect your investment. It sounds like your budget is not wide open, so your choices will be somewhat limited.

    Do NOT think that a 'glass car is not a street rod! They've been building them for about 50 years, which makes them older than many of the "experts", and they've more than earned the status of a "traditional hot rod"!

    Besides that, very few steel cars are built with strictly original parts, despite what you might be lead to believe. Bottom line is, if you think it's cool.....it is!

    When was the last time you looked at a really cool street rod, and said "That is a bitchin' hot rod!......unless, it is made out of a non factory material?" Never...right?

    As adults, some of us have forgotten the "fun" in custom cars, and tried to analyze it too much. You will be just as much a part of the rodding community as the guy with what some might consider an "ideal car". Don't worry about making a perfect choice. Just have fun!
