Figured I'd post my current (non-wagon) and my past cars

Here is my current. It is a 1979 Honda Civic CVCC. Been a sort of restoration project. I'm not going full on 100% on it, but more to make it look presentable. I did have the body taken all the way down to the bare metal and brought back to current state. That will change in January when it goes in for final paint.

Somewhere in Texas, I still have a 1983 Honda Civic wagon. It was quite nice (to me). I was driving this all over Fort Worth, Dallas and everywhere in between (lived just north of Lake Worth). I took the front coils out and mono/flipped the rear leaf. Put on some 13x6 Prime (RWD) wheels with 175/50-13 Euro TAs and just rode like that.

    Wow QD that thing looks impressive.

    I really want to see this in real life.

    I don't think pictures do it justice on all what it has gone through.

    I had several of those back in the day, about 10 of them if I remember correctly. Unfortunately here is the only picture I have from back in the mid 80's. It had 2 sidedraft Mikuni carbs, AT Engineering cam, header, Gold Wing pistons, ported head, and a 5 speed trans from a CVCC. It was a blast to drive.

    Below are pics of the dash clock I sourced and installed. This is a Japan only piece as no other markets had these available even as an option.
