If you've ever owned a vehicle which required a lot of time undoing ill conceived or poorly executed
"improvements" by previous owners, you'll know why it's always better to start with an untouched survivor. Make fun of the numbers matching crowd if you want, but this approach is based on good common sense, not pointless fanaticism.
Quality of work done is key, otherwise just assume that a truck that has been completely bastardized is going to be of less value down the road.
