When I find one that is complete with everything still on it not modified I will keep it that way and replace the broken or messed up stuff on it. The one I have now they welded to the frame things that should not have been there and also removed 70% of the parts off it. No bed, headliner, rear bumper, gas tank, wiring, door panels, rusted transmission ect. But it did have the original engine matching the title and assemble line time frame for it. It is taking a lot of time to get the parts for it to finish the project. Now this one will have a flat bed put on due to the cost of a good bed. So it won't be original. I can't afford to do this one 100% original but it will look GOOD when done. When people see it it will look like a Power Wagon and I saved it from the Junk Yard and being butchard up to put the body on another frame. I am modifing it a little with a shorter bed but this could be fixed if someone wanted to. Some people like to put there own touch on things they own and there will be people with enough money to restore them 100% Original except for the remade parts and welded up panels and such. That is what this world of old trucks is. Fix them and use them! Mark H.
