You go Bob!
There is a place for purity and a place for practicality. I love the look of a pure vehicle but in reality, here in Canada I believe that a great number of cmp's never make it out to shows etc. because of their "unique qualities" which make them a bear on our roads.
A trailer queen, OK go for the pureness. A driver to have fun in, go for it.
I love cmp's, but as I call mine the tenacious, stubborn old b***H, which is not far from the truth. Like a mule, when they want to, a cmp will go and go. On the other hand, give them a reason and stubborn becomes a new catch phrase.
All joking aside, in my heart I am a purist when it comes to any antique vehicle. What really changed my opinion on this matter is all the "works of art" that our museums inventory. Most private collectors have better stuff than any museum ever will...
