I'd be interested in getting opinions on this: if a car has been repainted, hasn't it been (at least partially) restored? To me, an unrestored car is just that: it's got everything on it as it left the factory, including the factory paint. 3047 was repainted, and years later various blades were used to remove the repaint and reveal the scuffed but original gold, except for those places where the blue repaint would not come off and where there was some body filler, such as around the oil scoop. What are your thoughts - is this an "unrestored" car?
