Mark, personally I am in the same camp as Steve, if feel it is the true skill of a restorer to recreate the original as exactly as one can, getting the car perfect in my eyes is recreating every "flaw" in the original construction. If you can do that then you really will have reproduced the car, copy, replica whatever we call it, you will be representing the original authentically. As you say there are some excellent period pictures of this particular car, I believe your version needs to stand scrutiny alongside then.
