As for the score, you have to have over 95% in all five categories to get Time Capsule, the highest award. I had well over 95 in four of the categories but was 91.5 in the engine compartment category due to a repro battery (which gets you zero of a possible 30 points), a couple non original fan belts, and zero points for the starter which they said was a 455HO starter and was not original to the car as it had a 1971 date code on it.
Anyone know whatsup with the SD starter part numbers? I remember reading somewhere a dsscussion on the various starters used on the SDs but the date is a long way away from the car's date. Rick said it had never been touched when he had the car. The second owner was the one who gave it a dime-store tune up and replaced the belts (the A/C belt is original).
