Re: Resale vs personalizing

I like the original stock look with modern upgrades. I just finished redoing the rear end in my truck that had factory 3:73's and added an Eaton Tru Trac to enhance the 3:73's for when I get the small block 400 I picked up and my horsepower will go to around 400 when its rebuilt. It's been an expensive summer as I had the 700R4 I bought last year installed in the truck too. So now my powertrain is 2/3rds modernized and ready for the 400 and its power when installed. I added a tach dash with speed warning and vacuum gauge. I took the Highlander bench out an added original buckets and console with plaid inserts. I can go on but for me my truck still looks like it did when new and the upgardes add to its driveability and reliability. I don't say I'll never sell it cause I've learned never to say never but if I decide to sell my truck it still looks like the Classic it is and I think thats what people are wanting when looking for a truck.
