Any 100% original restorations, past or present?

Here's a picture of mine that has been sitting since '64, pretty much unmolested except it's got a '32 block. I'm thinking of doing the same thing, getting in running and driving as-is. Mine is not in original paint, though, one repaint black over original green, door jambs are still green.

Hey Randy, does this car look familiar?!

[47fordman]

I inherited a 47 Ford Coupe...Super 8 Deluxe. At least that was the hood ornament I found in the trunk with a ton of other parts. My grandfather bought the car in 1949. He drove it to and from work until around 1970 where he and his buddy took the car apart and took to where they worked at Atlanta Hartsfield Airport and painted the car Delta Blue. The knobs are all still covered with masking tape. The trunk contains tons of parts...an orginal parts catalog, several steering wheel bezels, a gas tank, a heater I think, back side windows and the list goes on. My grandfather took the car home before they got caught and he never put the car back together. He passed away and my grandmother held on to all of his cars...his other two cars were both 66 mustang fastbacks. My grandmother passed away about five years ago and I inherited the car where it has set in my garage.

You can check out the pictures in my photo album.

Man, I wish I had the time and the money!

Wow, I know it's familiar, but it doesn't look it because you've made it so much nicer than it was! Nice work!
