No they don't! Growing up as the son of a Vette-head, I've got an appreciation for them (although the late 70's-mid 90's were a dark era). That said, I'm by no means a purist and don't have an issue with folks cutting and pasting to make their cars fit them. But the Greenwoods, Ecklers, etc. just looked like doodies. The lines just didn't fit together. The only ones I've seen that I liked were the 50's vintage Nomad-style ones.
