Yep, I had a set of inners already painted the correct factory code satin and was going to do everything else correctly, but after hearing what Jerry Brown and CSM get for their "better than new" trucks....I decided I'd do a very nice restoration on my 72 super.....one that takes it a step over stock to include the "curb appeal" items. I consulted a couple of the respected vendors and members on here who also agreed that would get me top dollar for the truck...
Seems the market is very limited for guys looking to BUY a 100% restoration. Think about it. Would you buy a 100% restoration? Or would you want to BUILD it yourself? I'd want to build it myself to make sure it was all done correctly...
...I do have date coded upper and lower hoses though
