This one will start a flame war for sure....

I've got a mid-70's Motobecane Grand Record that will be up for sale soon. It's 90+% original, with period upgrades (Regina Oro chain, Dura Ace fw, black anodized Weinmann 500 brakes, Campy post), and in good, but not great, shape (some paint wear on top tube and chainstays, and a ding in the headtube). It's probably worth more parted than whole, but will I rot in the 7th circle of hell for parting it out?
