Great topic:
I own a 1987 GT5-S, very original when I bought her 16 yrs ago. Its 30 years old now, a car that has seen its day as far as technology goes.
I have updated the car, leaving the body, interior intact, but now drives, performs like any modern super car of today. Some people might say that your crazy to change a GT5-S, but I don't believe the value will change at all , in fact I think it will increase in value.
It was touched on in the previous thread, new drivers want the original look with all the creature features that the current market offers, besides performance, handling etc.
Originality is great, went through that stage with all the mid 60's corvettes i've owned, but guess what, they are great to look at but not so much fun to drive any more.
This brings me to you have the original stock owner, and the owners who appreciate the heritage, but love to drive their cars every chance they can.
