Snake45 Posted May 26, 2017 Share Posted May 26, 2017 ...a "Pro Touring" and a "Restomod"?I gather that both involve updates to engine, wheels/tires, brakes, suspension, and interior. Is it that the Pro Touring is more extensively modified, with a lot more one-off fabrication involved, whereas a Restomod involves basically bolt-on (more or less) modifications?

Daddyfink Posted May 26, 2017 Share Posted May 26, 2017 Resto Mod - Restored with some upgrades like EFI engine, newer trans and upgraded suspension. Pro Touring - Heavily Moded suspension, usually a new fabbed chassis, borderline race engine, usually with forced induction of some sort and all the goodies to go with it.

Snake45 Posted May 26, 2017 Author Share Posted May 26, 2017 Okay, I think I got it now. I've been calling a certain project a PT, but now I think it's more Restomod. (Actually, as a curbside/semi-slammer, I guess it doesn't really make all that much difference.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
