I'm going to throw a rock here.....makes for interesting conversation.
Why leave the car like it is? From memory ( I don't have a SAAC Bible at work) the car was re-painted and had the motor swapped before it went to Spector. Why preserve the car from a time period when it was owned by a wack-job(sorry Phil)? I agree it is really, really cool to have a little of that "barn find" patina, be come on folks, this is a $10 million dollar car. Give it a paint job for god sakes!!!

Really, it is neat but it does not reflect the car's livery from it's time at Bonneville I don't believe.

Just my two cents...
They are only original once and this one is beyond that period....
