That depends to a large extent on what the condition is right now. If the firearm is in good condition, with a significant percentage of its original finish left, then it it probably best to give it a good cleaning then leave it alone. If it is in poor condition with very little of its original finish left, and the work is done by competent gunsmith, then restoration is probably worthwhile, although you would probably not recover your investment.
