      Should I go back to stock?

      By GnatGoSplat · Posted

      Right.  It's no museum piece and has a lot of legit serious issues that will greatly degrade its value that this is nothing in comparison.  Just trying to decide if it's worth pulling when I already have the rest of the interior torn apart to remove all my other less obvious electrical mods.

      That's how I'm looking at it.  I wouldn't have not bought the Regal, or insisted on paying any less for it if there was a disconnected and neatly stored amp wire running back to the trunk, everything else being equal.  My thought is that the target buyer for that car is the type of person to be a member here, and is likely to be relatively well versed in them to where something like that wouldn't make a difference in either case.  It's not a super low mileage museum piece where I feel something like that would make a difference.  If anything, that car being "The Car" of these forums makes it more desirable, but that's just me.

      I was thinking along the lines of anyone being interested in this car is likely to be a millenial or X'er that isn't going to be as into subs & amps as someone in their 20s. As far as doing it for me, I'm in "do what makes it most appealing to sell" mode.  if I were intending to keep the car, I'd leave all my mods intact as I really liked them.  However, I'm out of space and had to pass up a semi-unicorn car I really wanted that was priced very aggressively because of it.

      If it were me I'd pull it... but I also wouldn't worry too much about seeing it neatly tied up and disconnected at both ends if I were a buyer. It was the style at the time to run aftermarket stereos in nearly everything, so I consider it to be remanent of a former, period correct modification.

      Agree. As I always say, your car, your call. Do it for what you want rather than what the next owner may (or may not) want. I myself am after the total factory look, but if I can hide something that will otherwise give it the factory look, that's good news. I've replaced my Retrosound rear speakers with another aftermarket brand set that fits into the hole and under the grille sufficiently. They get hit by the sun with that huge rear window so I avoided a paper coned speaker with something more durable. I'm loathing replacing the door panel speakers, but as soon as II find that set of correct NOS ones I've got in storage somewhere, I've got a job to do............
