Ask your self this:
Are you sure you want this?

If it is a forever truck and you pay a premium, will you drive it after you get $30k - $40k into it, and it is valued at $50k?

If the value of this goes the Camaro, Corvette market route, then this becomes a garage queen that rarely gets driven.

I used to see a lot of nice 68, 69 camaros driving around and 60s corvettes ripping up the streets and highways in the 80s and 90s. Now you rarely see one unless in a car show or a classic car cruise. It isn't like 20,000 of these nice cars were destroyed. They are all in climate controlled garages and never get driven and when they do drive the owners drive like grandmas in them. A '63 corvette was my dream car as a kid. Now, no way would I spend that much for a car I would never drive.

If you are happy with a garage queen, then go for it. If you want to make this a semi-daily driver, than I do not think you would be happy unless you were willing to keep it as it is in patina.
