I like originality also, but I do drive my car,
sometimes on long trips, and for the sake of
drivability and dependability, I have the Gary Boone
dizzy, the GM Alternator and a modern battery, among
other cheap and dependable modifications, but with the
knowledge that they can all be put back to original
quickly and without a lot of fuss. (The series 53
batteries just became tough to find, and too expensive
for what you get.) I refuse to replace bulbs with
Everwing etc, but they can be found, I suppose. I will
probably someday go back to bone stock,(and repair my
minor rust) but in the meantime, it is a relatively
stock but dependable driver. Each to his own. If
they all had to be stock, we would not have many
around, and the parts would be impossible to get.
