numbers matching??
What exactly does numbers matching mean? If you need to find a driveline part to get it back to NM, does it have to be exactly the one that came out or is there a series of numbers that would be sufficient?

Engine, tranny, rearend are all original to the car. That includes intake and carb.
A "correct" car is one who has the correct date coded parts, however they aren't original to that specific car. Thusly that couldn't be considered numbers matching.
