Re: IML: Restoration vs. maintenance

["Klebert L. Hall" <crocuta@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

 I tend to think of  maintenance being any work on a wear item, which means 
pretty much anything mechanical.

 To me, restoration means work on body/trim/frame/interior/glass/paint, and 
also includes any operation that requires fabrication of parts (except maybe 
lines and hoses). It also has to be done on a way that makes the car more 
like an original car - when I put electronic ignition in my '69, that wasn't 
restoration, for example.
