Agreed, although I am a purist at heart and have the complete setup including exhaust manifolds that might be able to put another original back on the road. I was also lucky enough to find a complete, albeit unrestored ā67 383-S Fastback.
The car Iām building is a former /6 so no worries about originality. My other concern is the un-boxed idler arm on the ā67 only.
