My New Ride... (return of the fez?)
Oh yes, the 1977 Honda Civic CVCC SB2
I picked this up from the mitsu dealership next door, some old guy traded it in, and my buddy who worked over their knew that I would want it =) (thanks ted)
It's in "ok" shape, no major dents, definatly has some cancer. I think its gonna be a fun little car to have a around.
Beau's already talked me into doing a overly exagerated Supra style fart can off the rear of this thing.
As you can see some handy work has gone into this car, check out the plush seat! bungie cords and all, this fellow loved his old civic! Thinking about putting my sparco race seat in, hah
Insides pretty decent, nice big *** shifter, with the massive 4speed tranny. The JVC tape deck puts out nice clarity through the stock blown factory speaker in the door.
The powerplant, yes 1.2l of 52hp fury. Whats funny it really isnt to bad. It runs and drives pretty good.
What is the "Fez" ...

It was another SB1 civic I bought, this one was a 78 Civic, I ended up giving it to my friend for a birthday gift. Damn I miss that car, oh well my new one should do just fine!
Whats in the future.... who knows

as far as "modding it" or swapping out the engine for something cool, not really on the list right now of things. But maybe in the future, plenty of room in the engine bay for a B series.
I lowered it the other day, dropped it down about 1.5 inchs, and I flipped the aircleaner lid upside down to get some serious ponies out of her, hah
