I am doing a 100% ground up restoration of a '52 AD. On restorations, I typically go for 100% original. But, as this truck will be used almost daily by my son, I wanted some upgrades for safety. And, like you, I wanted a future buyer to be able to undo what I have changed. So, have done or will do the following (Texas truck):
1. Add seatbelts.
2. Add A/C. Vents hidden behind speaker grill.
3. Add front disk brakes, power booster, dual MC, and new plumbing.
4. 12 volt conversion, with alternator.
5. Add RetroSound stereo head unit, speakers, and sub.
6. Changed rear end gear ratio (3:55, from Patrick's).
7. Add turn signals.
8. Add sound proofing/deadening (strategically).
