Guys, I have gone and seen this car in person, here is the story as I saw it:
Obviously a stamped block, but the casting date does align with the build of the car and the engine assembly.
It is a real BB car, the half shaft caps are there, the stabilizer bar etc. and it has been there for decades. The under side of the car is unrestored.
The car does have a real BB 4.11 rear end that goes with the car.
The TI amp is in place. I did not see it physically but saw a picture of the TI distributor.
The front end has been hit, and IS NOT OG paint by a long shot
The car has been stored in a very wet climate. The hockey sticks for the seats are rusted as area other interior parts.
The dash pads have been removed and painted a gloss green along with the center stack.
Carbs are service replacements.
The side pipes are hack jobs installs, with jigsaw cutouts on the lower fenders. Some kid out of Canada owns the car. Dad has the money and somehow he hunts cars all over the US and flips them. I will have to admit this Canadian kids sourced two 63 SWC that he sold to the guy in NC selling this car, and the NC guy flipped them to Mershons. I saw both cars and both were decent cars. One was a 300 car and the other was a 340 car. So the Canadian kid has a knack for sourcing cars. Wrong tanny too.

Here are some random pics I took of the car. It was so far gone I did not take many pics. The rear end in the car now is obviously not OG.

Simple question: At what point in a car enthusiasts’ life does he finally graduate from being referred to as “some kid” on the World Wide Web into a “young fella” or “younger gentleman”?

I can't say; but I can say the transition from "young kid" to "old guy" happens way too fast.
