64.
I can't speak for the classification my ''acquaintance'' is shooting for.
And I agree... We do whatever feels right.... that said... When I found my '63' R2 in 100% stock condition, I don't have the heart to modify it. (well except the brakes to ''Turner'' since I live in a mountainous area.)
Thanks for the update.
Seems there are vehicles that could be candidates, but when doing the $$ math, it doesn't make sense... Yet someone will take it on, due to the love of the vehicle.
From Haggerty. Hope it comes up for Y'all.

Hog.. Ya gotta keep a trickle charger on em.... and I've never gutted a battery
Brad..to be a critic I could say 2 of the engine bays are without complete spark plug noise suppression panels and from a dealership the engines never looked like that having dual carbs and a few other options....But the reality to me is all 3 look excellent.
