1970 GTO Judge?

I have a problem. My Dad purchased a 1970 GTO Judge from a neighbor a few years back. He had full intentions on restoring the car, we went to swap meets and shows picking up parts here and there. We even picked up brand new GM front fenders left and right. The next year we picked up factory GM full Rear quarter panels for it, etc,,,. (that cost alot) Here's my problem do to certain things that happened to him getting older and thinking of moving to a smaller house (setting up for retirement):-) he seemed to have lost interest in the car. I have a chance to purchase the car and all the parts for $3000.00. Now the car is about average. The paint is incorrect (painted black) the floors have patches the interior is so so, trunk is great frame good overall ok shape. I checked the vin to a book he has and it says he's got a 1970 GTO Judge which is 1 of 200 and something out of CANADA. The motor is supposed to be matching #'s to the car, But not sure how to check that? (can you help me with that). Its a RAIII 400 CI but there are no Ram AIR parts left under the hood and the prev owner swapped the 4 BARREL with an earlier tricarb. (My dad also has an extra tricarb manifold less carbs added to this deal). The prev owner swapped out the factory trans with a TCI streetfighter turbo 400. Deal sounds good but need help! What should I do?
