I wish Honda did that. We're just starting to run out of parts for the Accord.

i remember that, it's really good to see. i know porsche does (did?) the same thing, there was an article on someone rebuilding a 356 from the ground up

I actually witnessed that, was a great way to kill a half hour watching a professional go about their job like that. I'll see if I can perhaps dig up some photos of that, I think I took a couple...
