So I have my car and it has the vin stamped motor and transmission, but if some of the smaller parts are not exactly correct for the car, will it make that much of a difference? I just wonder if paying really high prices is worth it. I try to buy some NOS parts, but sometimes I don't pay attention to the date codes on some parts. Is that really going to hurt the price of the car if I try to sell it down the road? I don't mean this wrong, but sometimes it seems more of a bragging right. I brag about having the original numbers matching motor and trans, but really after that is it that big of a deal? I do understand the idea of concourse restoration, but if you are not looking for that, is it worth spending the bank for it?
Just a question, nothing more:)
