to the OP - you need to ask yourself if you are building this for yourself or for the next buyer. If you plan to keep it (at least for awhile) build it like you want to without doing something catastrophic such as Line-X or chop the body. That way if you do decide to sell it someone could make changes easily.
Take mine for example. It's an '81 so I wanted to keep as much as I could that makes it an '81 such as the narrow trac axles, hardtop without shoulder belts, steps with the diamond tread, etc.. I also wanted it the same color.
However, I wanted it the way I wanted it. I have a 304 V8 out of a CJ5 in it (at least stayed AMC), the paint while it is the same shade it has some metallic to it. It's actually a Ford color (thank goodness it hasn't affected how it drives!). I also felt the factory white wagons didn't fit it so I powder coated them the same silver as part of the stripes. Also added a lift, etc, etc.
make yourself happy - forget about "value" and enjoy your Jeep.
