What I don't understand is people allegedly want it for it"s racing history, yet once the car is rebuilt, there will only be about 5% of the original car left. At that point, it is no longer the original car

The VIN carries the history, not the sheetmetal. Right or wrong, that's what Porsche (and I assume many other car manufactures) do with their race cars.

It'll be like Trigger's Broom when finished, but cool!
I'm sure someone like the Wills' could do it, with their labor being 'free' and make it worth it. If it were a coupe, no way it'd be worth anything.
