I think I own one of what you'd call unrestored survivor, but I guess everybody has their own opinion. My car has always been a driver, it has been used every year since June of 1973. Its always been driven 2,000 miles a year or less on sunny days. Things started to go bad like the car developed a exhaust manifold leak, so headers were put on in place. That's the one major changes I did to my car, I made that change about 10 years ago and have regretted it. Other than that I drive around a car with checked paint, the front bumper has chipped/flaked paint. Is that considered unrestored survivor? In my opinion yes. I fight the urge to restore it every year.
