Period patina White Hat Special decals adds to the cool factor - whether they were factory or dealer installed doesn't really matter.

Im with you Kiwi. The plan is to square away all the mechanical stuff and leave the body alone. Probably add a few period correct accessories.

Yeah like aftermarket fog lights, floor mats, column mounted tach, maybe an early 80s stereo.

Any factory stereo will fit and plug right in. Doesn't need to be form a truck. Some of the mini vans had some nice units.
