An interesting discussion from both sides of the fence on the original parts question.

I do admire those that seek to build a replica to more exacting standards than is common today. The replica market is more and more moving towards a 'who cares, it's a replica' attitude. Well, I care, as do a handful of others. I gotta admit, I'd be pretty thrilled to have a few original pieces on my replica, and at the same time, would like to see those parts returned to the original car.

...it's a tough call all right! I think richsd has a good handle on it.
