Cool huh? I love finding that kind of stuff....and sharing for the hobby. It's like an archaeological dig!
As far as driving a restored over a good survivor......I generally find that the survivors drive a little better for some reason.....maybe it's because the factory assembled stuff has been bolted to each other for all these years resulting in a zen-like harmony thing......or maybe not - lol!
I think I'm bringing one of these to MCACN for Vintage certification...
