More desireable "rebuild" for the open market. (Post Vintage bike '82)

I'm about to start rebuilding my 82 250XC. It's in good shape and has all original parts other than new fenders and seat. I don't race much anymore so I will ride it for a bit but ultimately look to sell it I imagine. My question is this: What is more desireable on the resale market for a post vintage year bike; a bike built completely back to original (bars, shocks, wheels etc) or a bike built more for vintage racing with modern bars, possibly upgraded wheels, works shocks etc? I'm leaning towards building it back to original mainly because I have all the parts and won't need to buy anything else.

Opinions?

Thanks

If you rebuild to original you need to restore to as close to original as possible. At that point, you are limiting your resale to an economy unaffected collector who would not likely ride the bike. You would likely be the collector to own the bike until the economy is robust enough for people to buy "toys" again. If you assemble the bike as a rider without correcting cosmetic issues (frame & tank paint, plastics) you can sell it sooner but not until you find a vintage customer. To most, it is an antiquated modern bike. You choice needs to be for highest or fastest return on investment. Full resto is highest done properly, vintage rider is lower but faster possible sale
