If the numbers still matched, and you were willing to do as much of the work as possible, you might come out OK. Two glaring issues that I see are the customized taillights and the rear wheel openings have been radiused to fit slicks. Because the bodies are made of 17 separate panels, the tai lights and wheel openings could be fixed. You would have to disclose it at sale, and it might affect the value because of the replacement body pieces.
An alternative would be to see if the car has any significant racing history. If so, you might consider restoring it as it raced between 1963 and 1965. In the two years it was on the road it was probably only driven on Sundays - 1/4 mile at a time
