It's a problem if they go "ozlook"?
Does that mean we can send all those Cal-look and German-look pieces of cloned rubbish to the crushers?

How is a reproduction any less real than an original?
Some people really need to get over themselves.
I bet the clips on your door trims aren't 1957 originals. Are they any less real?

It`s like the guys who own the original BRM`s...........................
Or the original Gasburners or the original Westy Roof Racks, Splitty Deluxe Trim, Tailpipe cheese grater etc etc etc.
Not a lot you can do about it if someone sees a business oportunity.

In protest I'm gonna tear mine off the bug and drive 'round with the 28 holes I dug in the sucker to fit the flash, blowing in the breeze. It'll be
hooting like a flute.
I'll start the Aussie Drive-by look.

So where's the problem here??? At least they'll probably be cheaper made OS than made in OZ. I think it's great that someone OS sees a market for
an old idea for VWs from OZ that was copied from '40s and '50s American and European cars.
What!!! you all thought that idea was born in OZ!!
Cheers.

Will there actually be any way to tell the difference though between old and new? If someone sells it as 'new old stock', how would you know?
