Power Door Locks and Power Windows, Does this hurt the resale value?
 

I have a 72 SWB that rides that fine line between street rod and "all original".
It has a 383, 20" Coys, CD/MP3 player, billit steering wheel, billit dash with AutoMeter guages and lowered 4/6 but other than that everything is stock.

I have been beating myself up over my interior options the last few weeks and here is my debate:
Should I run newer style buckets with a custom fiberglass console or keep the interior stock?
Here is what I have come up with.
Keep the stock bench (black/houndstooth) but have it recovered in a black leather/suede with heavy silver stictching and coverig the doors with the same material. If I do that I have thought about doing a power window/locks combo.

Will going all out on a custom interior ($3K) do you think this way hurt the resale value down the road.:confused:

I think no matter what you do and it's tasteful and professional, you won't impact the value in a negative way.

The more custom (personalized) you make it, the smaller your window of buyers will become.

If we were talking about a 67 Z28, it'd be a different story. Although these trucks are somewhat collectible, they are still just trucks.

If your goal is to sell it down the road... dont restrict your audience by being "overly custom"

If you feel you will keep it... make how YOU want it...
