Hi from France !
Blista
Band Wagon
Hi guys !
I'm Blista, I'm 22 and I live in France in the Alpes, where there's quite a lot of snow during the winter.
I like Hondas, currently I have a 82 (first gen) Prelude automatic, a 88 and a 89 (third gens) 4WS 16 valve Preludes, a 1986 CRX with stock ZC engine (AS53 as Honda named them), a 94 Rover 623 (basically it's a 94 European Accord built by Rover in England with the H23 engine)... and I have 3 Shuttles ! Sorry, Wagons as you call them.
- A 1987 AR65 (4WD with a button to press to enable the rear wheel drive), in bad shape with a lot of rust and mechanical issues but it still works and drives very well in the snow ! It is a model from Switzerland (originally had a cat converter contrary to all the french models).
- A 1990 Green EE4, only a few very minor rust spots, but we have to change the headgasket, the exhaust, and with a few electrical and body issues. Actually it belongs to my dad who bought it from a friend of mine who enjoys old Hondas too (you can see his EE4 in the background).
- Another 1990 Green EE4, looks good but the body is devastated with rust, the chassis looks okay though. The first plan was to part it out to repair the other EE4, but as EE4s are getting rarer I will keep it for me and I'll rebuild it with some used parts, it will be a fun ride. Hopefully somebody will help me to weld some good steel panels instead of the rusted areas. The headgasket is blown too.
(yeah, it's shitty work there, somebody just put fiber on it but that's wasn't the correct way of managing it !)
- I should also mention another AR65 from 1985, but unfortunately it came without papers (I mean the documents that says whose is it, I don't now how you call it), so very sadly we had to part it out because it is illegal to drive it. So sad because it wasn't rusted at all ! The engine was blocked and the suspensions were pretty wasted though. But now I have plenty of spare parts for my white AR65 !
So, here I am, doing my best to give them the attention they need !
I have tons of readings here but first, you may be able to answer this : does a 1G Wagon exists with RT4WD, and if so, where was it sold ? By RT4WD I mean with the viscous-whaterveritscalledinenglish like the EE4, and not the old system with the button I have on my AR65.
Feel free to ask questions, especially if you want details about european versions !

SwaggonWaggon, you mean with the rear foglights ?
Yes sir!
I'd trade the rear foglights in exchange of less rust.
(I'm joking of course, these are not for sale)
