Au contraire mon frère.

The "numbers matching" and "date code" crowd are a dying breed. Most newcomers could care less, including me. I'm not paying "you" an extra dime for a correct wiring harness, Toploader, dated coded sideoiler/Hipo 289 or Smiths' gauges. Most buyers look at a Superformance or Backdraft and say "looks great to me" and buy it.

IMO, there's a "Law of Diminishing Returns" when it comes to the "originality" of a replica. But whatever toots your horn.
