Ronnie, congrat on getting your car back. I did the exact same thing - read the postings on the web page and then got involved when I knew that I was getting my old car back.
Dave built his car as he would have wanted it if he could have ordered it, and I believe several others on this board would follow that logic. Mine was as I would have had it new, but when I sold it the next owner made changes that I really liked. The production on your car is rarer than my 71 convertible. My two cents worth is to make sure the car is what you want it to be. Putting it back to where it was has plenty of power, but only if you're really going to go crazy with the resto and plan on entering it in contests. My spin is I want to drive the car as much as I can, so I'm not into trailer queen material. The nice thing about it, with the car you have you can't make a bad choice!
And for those of you out there who don't have their car back, go get it. Also don't hesitate to join the fun here on the Message Board, Dave is going to need our support here soon!
