For your truck, I would vote to leave it original and fix the bumper. It is somewhat of an odd combo with the white roof and silver nose, but it's original that's for sure.
I’m the same exact way. It’s impossible to make these trucks not look good with any factory combo. So it’s tough for me too. It’ll be hard for me to decide but it being sort of a odd combo and original for sure makes me lean toward just fixing the bumper.
Speaking of oddness or rarity. Do you know any way to find out how rare a options combo is? Mine being a 307, Muncie SM465, and a 12 bolt, 4.10 or 4.11 rear end. I was wond ring how rare that is. Maybe I should just start another thread though.
