Just picked up an '89 RT4WD Wagon on Friday. Stock, decent shape, paint was pretty faded, interior is decent, few little rust bubbles and a couple minor dents.

So far I'm absolutely in love with the car, runs like a champ.

Picture time...






After washing, buffing and waxing.









Naturally I wasn't paying attention while I was buffing and got rubbing compound on the trim in quite a few places. Have a can of trim paint, probably fix that right up.

Did a little offroading in it the other day http://www.hondacivicwagon.com/bb/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=8203

Yeah, one of my favorite things about living in Trinidad (Humboldt County) is the coastline.

Thanks, I'd say it looks a bit better in those last a few pictures than it does in person. Still a HUGE improvement, I'm very happy with it.

Humboldt squid do have a reputation for being vicious, especially in Mexico.

Thanks. No shots of Trinidad Head in The Goonies, I'm pretty sure it was filmed somewhere in Oregon.

Yep. Goonies was filmed in the great northwest. Astoria, Oregon to be exact.
