2)White bumpers? Most go with chrome obviously, original front is in very good condition, I found a painted white rear sport bumper on CL and had it blasted and painted, looks brand new. So, who likes chrome? Who likes white?

3) Wheels? Original white steelies vs rallies I bought cheap and repainted vs old school slot or cragar ss

I go back and forth between all these, help me make a decision!
Very nice work!

Based on the work you are putting in, and since you aren't going custom on the engine, I would put it back as original as possible. Pinstripe, white bumper, stock wheels/caps.

I sure wish I could find a straight patina white front bumper for my truck...
