Honda S600 - The Grandaddy of 'em all!
Got bored. So I bought a 1965 Honda S600 (hardtop and luggage rack included). Need to rebuild the carbs, figure out what's broken, and do a frame-off restoration. Will probably take ~3 years to restore.
I know, it's not an S2000, but it's semi-S related
Enjoy!

Good Luck....
Can't wait to see it finished....
Hopefully, some of the parts are not to hard to find, but I bet some will be near to impossible....

Vtec? Who needs stinkin' VTEC! j/k
This is the first Honda production vehicle ever (that's a lie, technically, it's the 44-hp S500 -> the 57-hp S600 came 1-2 years later). Before that, it was all Honda motorcycles.

yea...but would you want to bastardise a classic like that? i mean, even with a modern day powerplant you still cant hide its age on the track. so why do it?
