Looking for info on work done to an F32

Hi
We are close to putting an offer in on an 1974 F32 that had the interior redone a number of years ago by an aviation company in Toronto. The boat had been shown at the Toronto international Boat show back in the early 2000s (2004?) Survey said full refit was done in 2000. I did see a couple pictures of it on an old post in here from Mac32 "Take a look at this f32 (highly modified)"
Was hoping someone on here might have some knowledge to share about this particular boats history (maybe some before resto pictures)
Work was done by GAMG (no longer in business?)
Was re-engined in 2005 with twin Mercruiser Horizon MPI 350 with Velvet Drives 1.56:1 ratio 450 -ish hours on engines)
Props 3 blade bronze 16/14
Note it only has one ventilation blower.
There is play in the throttle and shift controls (is this normal on F32?)
Hull ID Number 321 4706 (Partially obscured so I hope I have this right)
TRJ047060774
Reviewed the Survey from last year and it seems to be good with a couple minor issues and had some forward deck delam near the anchor windless, but low moisture readings there...
Current owner does not have much history on the boat, but she is a beautiful F32
Would be our first large boat so totally new to this - any thoughts what to check/advise is welcome. Trying to go in without emotion but It's such a nice boat.
Cheers
