opinions needed

[Ricoh]

I am building a 1980 chevy shortbox fleetside pickup. I have all new boxsides for it that I am going to farm out to someone to assemble and finish off. My problem is do I bring it back to stock tail lights and bumper, stock tail lights and rollpan or fill in the tail lights and use my rollpan with the corvette tail lights. I intend to fill in the side marker lights , stake pockets, drip rails but leave the door handles ( at least for now). My front bumper is going to be painted the color of the truck ( will change to a chrome one if I go to a rear bumper) I intended to do all the bodywork myself but had to sell my welder when I had a pacemaker put in


Need some opinions boys.
