shop to do restoration on 145 140-160


I think I probably wouldn't be able to buy a decent one
that matches what I want. I see very few 145s around in
any kind of condition; those few I do see are about the
same as the one I've got. Also, the one I've got has
everything I want it just isn't in great shape.

I want one with the original license plates, something
that simply can't be replaced if they are lost (if you
have one it can be duplicated but if new plates are issued
the old ones can't be put back on even if you find them).
I also want one with the rear vent windows and so on.

I know that if I wait long enough, another better one
might fall into my lap. As homer simpson once said, though,
But I want it Now!

I'm willing to spend 5-8 grand on it (over the next 8
months) and maybe more if I can't get around to getting
everything spiffed up in the first pass.

I'm pissed off enough at my 164 that I seriously thought
of going to the store and buying a new honda. If I'm
going to waste my money, I'd like to at least like to waste
my money on a car I really want.

If I were perfectly rational, I wouldn't be doing this,
but I'm not so I won't worry about it.
