Exactly what I think. Fair enough they have done an amazing job but that car is not the original anymore. It may have the vin, but its far from being a restored car.

You can't it was fucked. They have essentially built a new car and slapped the originals ID on it.

Nothing wrong with patching it up with new metal!! Far better than leaving it rotting anyway!!
