Someone built one of my Altair replica PCBs and went to great lengths to 
make sure the date code on the ICs was older than 1975.  They also sourced 
the old brown cylindrical resistors.

I provide the exact same parts that were on the origional BOM, but don't 
try to match date codes!  : )

I guess everyone has their own idea of what is vintage enough.
