October 21st, 2016 12:05 AM #1I don't know if is it worth it if i'm going to restore my dad's singkit. Newly overhaul ang engine worth 10k, ewan ko kung top o ung general po un. Pero okay naman andar nung sasakyan. Ung looks lang kasi talaga. Nakapag drive nko ng mga brand new na sasakyan pero iba parin ung feel na magdrive ng luma. May something e. Spark? Haha
Hindi lang talaga naalagaan ng mabuti ng erpats ko. Honestly madami papalitan sa car na to. Bumber sa harap ipapafiber ulit.Paint.3 door handles. Sa interior naman gusto ko bagong upholstery lahat. Kahit ung driver seat at passenger side lang ung palitan na upuan kahit iretain na ung lumang backseat okay lang. Wala naman kasyang iba unless pang singkit talaga. Carpet. Fog lights. Cv joint. Aircon. Flashers na gumagana naman pero hindi agd kumakagat pag issignal mo. Huhu.
Alam ko deep deep money ang kailangan. Your thoughts po?

October 21st, 2016 12:10 AM #2cars that old and that common.
sentimental value is probably the only reason they get restored. there's no peso equivalent for sentimental value.
you'll probably not get your investment back if you sold it afterward. but i am sure we already know that.
but, if you have money to burn and sentiment to value, why not?
btw, if you do decide to proceed, i suggest you return her to all stock. they look better, stock.
my opinion.

October 21st, 2016 12:35 AM #4one thing i can predict, should you choose to start the fixin' up..
you will be bitten by the restoration bug.
walang tingi-tingi. no half-hearted or half-finished jobs.
you won't stop until everything is restored.
in the end, you'll love to drive her around and see the eyes ogling the car.

three choices:
a. restore it, keep it pristine and keep it. sarap din tignan ng mga lumang sasakyan na excellent condition.
b. restore it, and sell it. however, the expenses may not be commensurate to the selling price.
c. sell it as it is. maski 20-30k.

Madami pa ata sa surplasan mga oem parts ng singkit. Iyon lang talagang you're going to spend some time and effort making the rounds. It'll cost you but that's how it is talaga restoring a car
Ang ayoko lang jan talaga na naalala ko sirain iyong nga aircon louvres nya
to be or not to be, that always confuses me!
