The restoration of the Mayflower2 is documented in detail here. Absolutely fascinating!
The funny thing is, I had just the other day been browsing an old National Geographic magazine (Sept. 1964) about the trip, and had done a search and found the Mystic site. Was going to post, but Kerberoxu beat me to it. Then, I dug in the old pile of Nat Geos and found the May 1964 issue about building the ship and planning the trip attempt!
Lots of photos of the 1964 trip and many pages of technical stuff about what it required.
