Number ratings are very subjective, and vary dramatically by age and originality.
A 1950s car that is almost entirely original -- especially paint and interior -- may be considered a #2 car, while a restored car in the same condition would be a #3 or 4. Original patina does not detract the same way as wear on a restoration.
More wear is tolerated on a 70 year old car than a 25 year old car.
A lot of cars made up through the 1970s had factory fit & finish issues that -- when new -- would keep a fully restored model from being a #1 at Pebble.
