I realize that it will never be "numbers matching", the original engine has probably long ago been melted down and turned into a bunch of toyotas. But i always thought that originality counted for something?? I'm not ready to sell the car yet and i do enjoy driving it, but i'm looking ahead at a retirement project, and by the numbers a 326HO is more rare than a 400 so should be more valuable down the road. Let me have all your thoughts. Phil.
Yes, more rare, but as someone else noted, rarity doesn't make it necessarily more valuable. If given the choice right now and price was no obstacle, would you rather have a 400 convertible from the factory or would you rather have a 326 HO? I like the HO stripe, but I would take the 400 every single time. I could add a stripe to it.
