If you are interested in the value of the car then it would be best to stay stock. Any modifications will bring the price down. I own a 1970 Chevelle SS 396 convertible that I was offered $130,000.00 for it last night. It is all original so you determine what you want. Me, I prefer the price, and no I am not selling at this point.
