Regardless of what replica you get, it might be a great chance for you to begin to learn a little about the mechanics of a car. It really isn't all that hard to do routine maintenance on a vehicle. Things like
oil changes, greasing the chassis, changing spark plugs, air cleaner replacement don't require a lot of mechanical skills.
It will give you a chance to begin to get to know your car better, as well as save you some money. These cars are not like your daily driver, where you just take them in twice a year for service. If you drive it hard at all, regular inspections should be done, for your safety, and to prevent further damage occurring, if something is failing. Might even be worth taking a night school course, if one is locally available, to learn some basics about the mechanics of vehicles. Learning the terminology, will also help when dealing with a shop that you may decide to take it to.
Just a thought...
