Awesome truck! Stock restore! It would be a crime to chop this truck up :)

OK This is just my opinion. You make a custom out of it and no matter what, some people aren't gonna like what you did and won't buy it. Make a hot rod out of it and some people will say (and probably rightfully so) "Hey it's a hot rod which means the guy probably beat it to death." Either way you'll get less for it than if you made it a real sharp stock looking truck. I know I will probably get attacked by some other members for saying this but In my experience this is what I have observed and I grew up in a hot rod family. BTW, that truck is a beauty!
