while i very much respect the discernment of 6 different types of the same bolt, i guess i'm primarily interested in the look. if the "points" are concourse ratings, my goal is to drive my piece of history and enjoy it with the added perspective that the original owner did not have ... i can compare the drive to the modern cars, and understand the magnitude of the technological improvements.

please understand, i'm not pontificating. just trying to encourage a fellow enthusiast who is trying to do something that is extremely complicated, but potentially very, very cool.

"thenewgarage" has identified an interesting niche here, and i think some members would pay a reasonable price for a small bit of additional authenticity. i hope it works out.
