Does full seam welding lower value of a frame?
I am curious: If you "full seam weld" a C3 frame, does that make it useless for someone trying to build a correct restoration? Or do judges allow an exception there? I assume they would deduct points for that?

Thanks. I'm building mine to drive hard for fun, I was just curious if I were to ever sell it (probably never) and the next guy wanted to try to restore it (probably not even possible).

I honestly don't think it would devalue the car a whole lot, if at all, unless you were selling it to an NCRS nut. Most people don't even concern themselves with how the frame is set up. Frame rot's another story, though.
