My 74 duster, 40 years bein the family car
I am jealous of two things
1- That you got a car that had been in the family that long
2- The fact that you have no snow!!!!
Do what you want with the car but remember one thing- they are only original once. If you want to change the car and have a place to put all the original parts then put them away in case you want to put it back to original later.
