Let us make cars and not coffins! A lawn mover is a lwn mover and it sticking it on bicycle wheels won't make it a car for sure. If you drive it on the road , you will be sucked in the vortex of big vehicles. So develope an ENGINE which is different from existing engines which can deliver power at low fuel consumption. Not assembling something already there and claiming 'Invention'. I congratulate the boys for their efforts but suggest advisor to help these boys to develope their own engines and not to borrow Honda engines.

Yes, you are right, but only on one part. Nothing in the world (except Nature) comes without borrowing. When Human body components are transplanted to give life. When wright brothers invented the Aeroplane, do you think that they made a new engine for that. I do not see any mistake in borrowing components for a good purpose.
I think we citizens must help them to achieve the next and avoid discouraging them. Many inventions in India are lying in the dust, we have to give a new life to them.
