Racers do seem to be less concerned than others about originality, but I would be surprised if most original owners felt that way.

I don't know! I would just assume because of the value of the cars one would be very careful about keeping the "details" accurate.

Motors are perhaps the one area where virtually anyone may make an exception, even with a very valuable car. It's not that uncommon to have the correct "type" of engine, but not the exact engine, in a rare car.

Looking forward to Cal's thoughts/research on this interesting issue as it applies to all aspects of the cars.
