I believe the 2 speed is original (missing engine clutch). The tires look great, no dry rot at all, just need cleaning. Shocks look like they came from a motorcycle. The engine on it doesn't look like the clutch will line up with the jackshaft sprockets, not sure why. I'm not sure if I'm the right guy to restore it. Maybe make it a rider without hurting originality.

I definitely wouldn't do that. You can buy the dual sprocket engine clutch here:

I'd get that, run it inboard and see how it lines up before making any modifications.

Maybe pick up a piece of aluminum plate and make an adapter plate to get your alignment. Looks like you'd still have decent clearance if you used a piece of 1/2" plate. I needed to do this on a bike so I had clearance front to back, works pretty good and makes installing the hardware much easier also if you drill and tap all your mounting holes.
Looks like a briggs on there now. Could it have originally had the Tec engine?
Your front forks look like there stuck or something. They are sticking out pretty far.
Here are a couple of photos of a 7000 I have so you have a reference. I have made some changes on mine since then (I added a correct seat and shocks), but you can get an idea what you are looking at.
