You both have good plans for cars that are going to be daily or occasional drivers. Not every SSP has to be restored to in-service level to be considered saved. Had I not received sanction from the CHP on my car, I was planning on restoring it as an occasional driver that would be almost exactly as the car was delivered to the CHP from Ford. The only difference would have been painting the doors black instead of white and installing a stock Ford radio where there was originally none with no equipment (spots, antenna, etc) installed whatsoever. Visually, there would be no mistaking what the car was with the aim being to keep it legal and hassle-free to drive as much as I wanted.

Hearing that, it makes me reconsider painting my car another color. I was thinking of going with a different color gray, but black would be a safe choice in case I or a future owner wanted to return the car to in-service condition.
