Restored or repaired? There's a difference.

It has been at Federal Automotive for quite sometime now. Technician told me the owner brought it for a complete restoration. New engine being built and other modifications being done.

There is a difference between restoration and modifying.

Restoration does not in no way include modification.

anyone knows about the Honda S800 that used to be in Princes Town? I used to see it parked under a house just before the junction where the Tasker Road crosses the Naparima Mayaro Road. It was a house on the right, about four houses from the junction when heading away from Princes Town. It appeared to be a rolling chassis, with no headlights, trim or windscreen......

Don't know why you just don't but it.
A 20V will do wonders in that for sure.

Might even help you (if am even allowed to touch it that is)
