Nothing wrong with restomods Mikaw, If it keeps another old bike on the road and allows it to be safer, I see nothing wrong with it. Chopped up "cafe racers" with skateboard seats are another thing entirely !!!

+1 for period correct mods
(except for electronics... anything electrical is fair game for modern upgrade)

That VIN label is way off. I hope you didnt pay for that.
I make exact replicas but I moved to eastern Europe and even mailing an envelope costs alot. I can email PDFs that you can print out. I can walk you through the process, its easy.
