Default Are opinion changing on restoring a shotgun?

I used to be one of those old school guys that said a rusty old shotgun is always better than a restored shotgun, but views views are evolving after seeing some correctly restored shotguns. By correcting restored I personally mean a gun that has been faithfully bought back to the way it left the factory in every aspect.

What are the current opinions on the following question: If you have a Parker with no factory finish on the frame or wood (the barrels usually have at least some) and its overall condition is worn and need of some TLC, do you object to correctly restoring it? If so, why? If not, why?
