Odds n Ends Vintage Photos VII

Last weekend I went down to the Orlando area for an NSX meet. It was a great time with around 25 NSXs participating. Hopefully it will become an annual event.
Anyway, on Sunday we were hosted for lunch and a show-and-shine at Headquarters Honda in Clermont. They also provided test drives. I was surprised by how pleasent it was toodling around in a CR-Z. I see now what Dave was talking about in his review.
So the dealership is in a state of the art green building. The service area included a small business center, a lounge, and a kids play room for customers. It also included this back near the parts window...
I can't take credit for the pics. I left my camera in my other car.
The owner of the dealership had this in a barn for a number of years. A few years ago he decided to attempt a restoration. Unfortunately he is now at the point where parts have become a serious issue, especially under the hood. The engine does not run and needs many parts that would have to be custom machined or adapted from other vehicles. He is considering swaping in a 2 liter Honda bike engine or even (possibly) an F20C (I doubt it could be made to fit, though.)

I'd hate to see a gorgeous body like this ruined with the wrong engine
I would be happy to contact the dealership about this unless you want to

Hi Lainey, what a little doll of a young lady Ally is turning into. They grow up so quickly it seems.
Save travels to PA. I'm asking all in attendance to give Phil and Heather a hug from us.
Wish we could be there, it's been too long since we've seen any of the gang.
