Description:
1968 Honda S800
After some searching, I connected with someone in the Netherlands and decided to try my luck and import a car for the first time. I documented and made a YouTube video series following the entire process here:https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLjZlZTcYUGvPuzB3Dt0pAYJBKJaLOQZph
The main reason I liked this particular S800 is because it was restored partway. The chassis and body are in great shape. Someone took the time to redo the chassis and paint it. Some new suspension components were added, as well.
BUT...I was in for a surprise.
As I removed everything and began a through inventory, I found that no one cataloged or organized the bolts to the engine or anything else. Also, the engine blocks do not match the car, which was a surprise to me as well.
I have started to organize the parts so that the new owner will have an easier time getting started. The body is in great shape. It has a few dings that can be removed and I am working on removing some tape residue that was put on for shipping. Some of the paint was damaged on both sides under the doors due to the tape, and there are some dings from shipping. Please see photos.
I have all the import paperwork and everything is on hand. I am not going to title it or register it. This is a unique and rare car. I hope you find this information useful. Please let me know if you have any questions. Car must be picked up. There are too many parts to put back in the car without hurting it.
