I started a thread in the Originality forum about emblems which turned into quite an interesting discussion. It got me thinking about how to proceed with my car. I was going to post it there, but I was pretty sure about the outcome. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) Hopefully my question will generate the same quite of discussion here.

I have a '71/4 with the appearance group package. Is this fairly common setup for the '71s?

Now for the real question I have...

Should I spend the time/money/energy to do a full concourse restore on this car? Or should I just do a nice solid restore, but not concern myself with all concourse aspects of the restore? I can then find another more "rare" car to focus efforts on.

I am leaning towards a full concourse restore, but then it would limit my driving of the car for fear of ruining a lot of hard work. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif)

I guess the answer to my first question will really give me a lot of insight. If this is a fairly common package it won't be a big deal to do a light restore and keep the car available for more driving. If it is a less common package I will definitely go with the more details restore.

All opinions welcomed and appreciated!
