a 1961 fiat 1500 that needs restoring and a running 1968 volkswagen 1200 beetle.

[machizmoz]

May question lang ako. Ung mga vintage cars ba 70s model down tumatakbo ba using unleaded gasoline? Kc they are running on leaded gasoline before. Wala ba effect sa engine short or long term pag unleaded gasoline karga? Para di Ot, ung friend ko meron 1965 Mustang sa garahe nila. Di tumatakbo. Hirap daw hanapan ng piyesa. Kung gusto mo ba mag restore ng mga vintage cars may makukuha ka pang piyesa o you have to resort to fabricated or replacements na lang?

depends on how deep a restoration you want to do.

 

take for example a volkswagen. there are some who would restore the bug to factory specs. so for example you have a 1962 model. there are only a few color choices that were produced on that year. the engine should be of the same year. the seat covers should be of that particular design for that year. its very time consuming and expensive to restore classic cars.

 

but first thing you need to do is research on your project car first. if its a pretty common vintage car. then parts would be available in the states.

Yup, if I'm not mistaken, that is called number-coding. Sobrang mahal and very time consuming. But I'm sure it will be worth everything in the end.

 

Me, I have a 1969 mustang grande waiting to be restored. Wala pa ako extra money. Inuna ko muna other hobbies ko: diving and photography, which are both expensive hobbies.

 

Demolitionman: nice mustang bro. Where did you have it restored?

[bonito99]

for starters:

 

1975 Pontiac Firebird Formula 350

1975 Mercedes Benz 280s W116

para sa classic lovers theres a parking lot full of classic cars in annapolis greenhills. its being run by larry salonga. some cars in the lot - jags xks, camaros, mercs sl and a 300s, and many more.

We used to have a black 1969 Mercedes-Benz 280S lying in our garage for the longest time. (Not sure of the chassis number, was probably also a W116.)

 

We had the engine overhauled and eventually let it go. That car was really stately.
