"Restored" and "rebuilt" are terms that get abused. "Restored" to what? Original mechanical condition? "Restored" to running condition? "Restored" cosmetically? Painted so it looks different then it did new? The word needs context.
Same with "rebuilt." I was looking for new injector nozzles for my Ford IH diesel and one diesel shop tried to sell me "rebuilt" nozzles. I asked what the heck that was supposed to mean? He says he cleans and tests them and that makes them "rebuilt" according to him. NO THANKS. To me, "rebuilt" in that context means the old injector holders with brand new nozzles (that only cost $8 each). To me, to "rebuild" is to restore all wear-item parts back to new specs as far as fit goes. If I rebuild a worn engine, surfaces like cylinder walls, piston-ring lands, cam and crank bearings, valves and seats, oil pump, et. all get renewed in some way. Yet - diesel shops sell patched up injection pumps with very high hours on most parts and sold as-is as "rebuilt?"

On our first cosmetic restoration, not having a manual, we carefully marked the wires, taped the magneto in the position it came off, and were careful not to turn the engine over while we had these components off. We thought we could get by with this since the engine ran perfectly and would not need any internal work. After the cleanup and painting was done, we began reassembly and finally came to t
