Great thread!!!
I'd suggest that under Restoration there is the possibility that "state it never existed in" may not be true as I just read an article about a shop -- in SoCal I think but it escapse me - where they restored an RS as it would have left the factory -- with certain 'imperfections' and bits of tape under paint etc. So perhaps "period factory accurate resto" or some similarly convoluted term could nails those ones down.
I would also suggest under conservation that there are non-factory conservations -- in other words it's conserving through intervention with alteration but sometimes to a later version of the car -- especially a car with provenance. sort of halfway between non-fictional restoration but not to a factory spec
