The car in question has been bastardised in every way imaginable. It doesn't have the original engine, gearbox, most of the peripheral mechanicals, and the guards have been butchered
If we disposed of the doors, bonnet, boot, and fenders, would it still be a HO?
Ok, what about if we also completely stripped the interior, down to a bare shell. Still a HO?
Ok, so what if it had been rolled, and we had to cut the roof off?
Now its been sitting in a paddock for 20 years, the boot, quarters, floor-pan, and firewall are all rusted away. Is it still a HO?
Please tell me, precisely which piece is it that makes it a HO?

If you need answers to all of those questions yourself then clearly it's best that people like you stay well away from classics that are getting thin on the ground already.
You either understand its meaning or not and clearly here, you don't understand.
