Default Just getting started

Found this site and decided I could learn from it. I'm the original owner of a 1966 Mustang, 6 cyl. antique bronze purchased in Nov. 65 in Encinitas, Calif. It's gone through quite a few changes since it's beginning. on the part you can't see. As far as what youcan see, it'sa lot original. Of course it's been repainted (several times), original bumpers have been rechromed. Interior has been replaced as needed.
My puzzlement is... should I keep as much of the original stuff as it is or should I spiff it up with replacement stuff, like the door handles, qtr panel ornaments, hood lip & letters, window moldings,etc.
Any input would be really appreciated.

Hi Sandi, welcome to Mustang Forums!

Come on over to the classic section, there are currently a few threads floating around about the benefits of keeping a classic all stock vs. the benefits of doing modifications to it. For the most part, it depends on the use of your car. Post your questions and pictures and you will probably be overwhelmed with opinions.
