Yes, the term "restoration" is abused. This is a restomod - hydroboost, Clifford intake and Webers, TH200 trans, Global West suspension. I have been in touch with the dealer and now have 27 undercarriage photos. I am trying to tender my excitement but it looks great. The workmanship appears to be high quality. I actually prefer a restomod in a stock appearing car so this fits my bill. It's not perfect but the flaws so far are few, and things I can easily handle.
One odd discovery - the flywheel is exposed. I'm sure this isn't normal but I suspect a cover isn't available with the OHC6-TH200 combo.
