an untouched original in very good condition should fetch a higher price than a 'restored' one, but when you look at what folks ask, what you don't see is what folks get, if anything .... any vehicle is worth what someone will pay for it, so if you're concerned about the "return on your investment", you don't wanna be "investing" in an old truck, there might not be a buyer by the time you decide to "cash in" wink which is to say, do whatever you prefer to it, with the understanding either route will cost you more than you'll recover
