Bone-stock or modified??

[KiltedBanshees93GT]

I agree with both prev posts,but to spell it out a little more, I think you have to look at the pros and cons for both,
Stock:
Pro:
General "Bone stock" resale value (tho this has been becoming less of a factor as resto-mod has gotten bigger)

Starting with a "clean slate" for any future modification, you know exactly what if anything ,has been done and by whom.

Cons:
Near 40 year old technology, efficency, safety, etc.

Modded:
Pro:
Well done modifications increase performance/reliability without costing you in work/time/fees. (i.e. starting out w/ 4 wheel disk brakes or EFI)

Creature comforts can be increased as well.

Head start of an ultimate plan for a car.

Cons:
possible unknown modifications done by unknown and possibly unqualified parties.

More miles/driven harder to get the most out of the parts installed.

Body/ interior /engine bay damaged by previous modifications.

These are what leaps to mind, did I miss anything folks?
