Default Re: Bone Stock or Modified?

I would love to have a 100 point restored car. They are not in my budget.
I bought a decent running car that did not have original color paint and was a combination of ingredients. Over the years I have been adding missing parts, such as the top material.
I have upgraded the steering and suspension to make it safe and easy to maintain. Since I was a teenager I wanted a RILEY head and a "B" crank. Now I have it.
If I suddenly came into a heap of cash I would be shopping for a mostly original unrestored car. After all, they can be restored a million times but they are only original once.
