RustyO\'Toole, those are the sort of questions I would be asking the vendor if I was buying the car. I would also expect a file full of papers covering the very professional looking restoration which must have cost a fortune.
The period of described ownership seems to take us to 1977 and I think we can assume that the car was in need of major work by that time probably taking several years. It would be interesting to know something of its history from say 1980 to 2007 when it appeared for auction at Goodwood UK in June 2007.

Despite some gaps in the history, it's certainly a handsome beast and the work done looks like it has been done to a high standard.
