GMC modification vs. preservation[ 24 votes ]
1. Things come and go, as long as there are GMCs driving on the road, I'm fine with it. 3 / 13%
2. Modifying and upgrading GMCs is necessary and fun. 16 / 67%
3. It makes me sad to see a GMC get parted out, and I'd like to see some totally original GMCs preserved and in museums. 3 / 13%
4. Not my coach, not my problem. 0 / 0%
5. I'm modifying my coach, but there should be preserved coaches in pristine condition somewhere people can see them. 2 / 8%

Where is the value of a GMC? Is it in the design and history, the drivability and using it, or somewhere else? Coaches are being upgraded at a great rate, there are projects that are started and never finished, others have fires or accidents, others are donor coaches or parted out. All of these take away a chance of preserving an original coach. Some are too far gone and there is no real chance that they'll be restored to drivability, much less restored to original showroom condition.

Do you feel this is a minor problem, the way of the world, a crying shame? Let's see if there is cause for concern. Please vote.

Thanks.
