I am 22 with a 59 1/2 ton. My theory is that this will be my vehicle for
awhile so I am rebuilding to suit me. My engine I rebuilt mostly original,
only adding electronic ignition. The body I am keeping original, because
thats one reason I bought the truck, was the way it looked! I plan on
majorly changing the radio system to an all out cd changer, possibly mp3
player system. But, like someone else said, I am trying to keep it
"revertable". If I want to go original, I'd like to do it pretty easily.
I guess "mostly original" would be my final answer.

ps-If I had more money on hand, I might be more of an updater or upgrader
on much of the systems.(brake, steering, transmission) College takes care
of the awful burden of extra money laying around. ;)
