^^^This assumes you built it for a “pool of buyers”. If you built it for yourself who cares what others think!

That said, I’ve seen many 80’s/early 90’s builds for sale with tweed upholstery and pastel paint jobs.

On my truck - which I didn’t build with the intent to sell - I painted it red because I LIKE red and I didn’t delete the badges or weld shut the bed rolls and delete the tailgate chains because everybody seems to do those things.
