Date original parts would probably more important to a collector of cars. Surely a date correct car for everything would be worth more to collector and for the person who just wants one, just the main components would be important, chasis no. engine number etc.

"If" I was restoring a vehicle to original, everything would be as it was built with. I mean "everything", rim's the lot, because "I" would know if they were incorrect.It wouldn't matter to me how long it take's to find the part I need,I can wait. That's just my nature, it has to be correct, it bother's me if it is wrong.
Probably developed it from being in a trade all my life.
