I agree and disagree. If you go by the 100% factory correct rule it is not possible to restore a truck. Where are you going to get brake pads that have asbestos in them. What if the company the made the axle seals went out of buisiness. You get the idea. On corvettes it is easy to tell if you have the original motor because they put part of the VIN on the block. As far as I know they didn't do that on the trucks. [didn't on mine] Super correct restorations are only good for points in a show that judges for that. Even some of the corvette shows take off points for over restored cars to the point were some of these guys put runs in the paint on purpose[like in the door jams] to match what the factory did. I would call anything that appears to be 100% correct a restoreration whether or not it has the correct markings on the rear shock bolts. [Yes the corvette guys go that far]
