There were entirely too many of these cars which were restored in the early days of the hobby because they were easy restorations... many many many of them we would all believe would be sinful to restore had they come on the market today, that is what makes unrestored cars so desirable.
Once they are discovered and brought to market and or home I believe they should be carefully cleaned and preserved in order to ensure they retain their finishes and unique characteristics.

Let's see where this notable survivor ends up:

Since I am in the mood to ask questions, what should I call my car? It's not a survivor, because it was rebuilt back in the 80's. New sheetmetal, fenders, quarters, floor pan and painted black. They (I have no clue who or where the work was done) did a good job because the car is straight, but it was also very incorrect and incomplete and still is.
So if it's not a survivor and it's not "restored", is there a classification for it? I just call it mine, for going on 23 years now.
