… What are Mods?
Any changes to a vehicle that stray from the original configuration. Anything done to replace stock parts have not been considered mods for this purpose.
… What is Restification?
A new term used to describe
the process of restoring and
modifying a vehicle, not
necessarily to the original
manufacturers specifications.
I want to have a vehicle that
performs up to MY intentions
while remaining somewhat stock
in appearance. |
