what would you do?
I picked up a nice 75 for not a lot of money recently. i bought it for the sole porpose of droping in a blown big block, gutting it for a racing interior, and backhalving it. cool. just this morning another vette nut on the motorcycle board i frequent sent me a PM. her brother had a real nice 68 vette. no motor no tranny. he had it sold localy but the buyer has flaked and she wanted to know it i wanted to buy it for $5500. i would like to have a 68 over a 75 because i think they look better. even after i sell my 75 it's going to cost me a couple grand to buy the 68 and ship it from florida but i can live with that. problem is i don't know how comfortable i am with chopping up a nice ( and it is a nice looking one ) 68. kinda feel i should leave it for a guy who wants to keep it more stock then what i am planning. what do you guys think.

GO FOR IT!
No-matter how nice the '75 might turn-out, you'll always look at it, thinking:
"Man, I still wish it was the '68....."
