Ask 100 people the definition of "restoration" and I dare say you'll get that many different descriptions. To me that word means a complete return to original equipment specs, with original equipment parts including "period correct paint". Very few people can afford to do a "period correct" restoration. I don't belittle anyone for trying to make their pride and joy as correct or at least as nice as they possably can. After all that's what a hobby is all about. My compliments are more free to a Father and son project that shows a lot of time and care taken, than toward a $20,000 restoration that is fresh out of somebody's professional restoration shop. In all these years I guess I haven't heard "The Word" that most accurately describes the craziness that we do, But I suspect the word "restoration" was a tough one for Mr. Webster to define.
