My personal thought would be to keep it with the mileage that it has. Reasoning for this is you might run into a problem if you should ever sell the car and the title not match what the odometer shows and then would have to get a title that says modified mileage or something to that extent.

If it was over 100,000 I would say go back to zero. But, at 76,000 leave it. Your entire resto will be documented at that point anyway. To me, a car with less than 100,000 original miles carries alot of weight, more so than "numbers matching drivetrain". At 76k many of the pieces you take off should be able to be cleaned/polished/painted back up and put back on which (to me) preserves the originality. When I'm buying cars I look for originality and straightness of the body, I could care less if the engine's been swapped 20 times.
