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 ass 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 ;)

Re:My New Ride... (return of the fez?)
 

Just what you need, another project. :P

Re:My New Ride... (return of the fez?)
 

i invision this to be a 10 second car

Re:My New Ride... (return of the fez?)
 

i want one bad...how hard is a d16 swap?

Re:My New Ride... (return of the fez?)
 

I love it, thats just sweet.

You need to do some sort of swap though. How much do these things weight?

I saw a turbo haybusa 1300cc engine would be sweet.... 300 hp of six speed fury

Re:My New Ride... (return of the fez?)
 

wow, a 77 civic, now thats old school. thats a pretty cool little car. how much did you pay for that? that could be a good sleeper. that car has to be light as hell.

Re:My New Ride... (return of the fez?)
 

i say ---- the swap and do an old school build up, i think jackson racing use to upgrade these cars ill scan the book and upload the page of them turboing this engine i believe. is this the one where the intake and exhaust ports are on the same side?

Re:My New Ride... (return of the fez?)
 

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

Re:My New Ride... (return of the fez?)
 

Never seen a honda even like that? ???

300 bucks.

Re:My New Ride... (return of the fez?)
 

too bad you dident get it earlier i could have goten a factory tach for it. i still have the center gauge cluster and wooden steering wheel! lol

http://www.jdmcrx.com/onyx/civicgaugecvcc.jpg

factory fresh! lol

Re:My New Ride... (return of the fez?)
 

let me check when i get home iam just trying to remeber from the picture but i could have remember wrong

Re:My New Ride... (return of the fez?)
 

You lucky basterd!Ive been looking for one of those.Those things are dope.I was just telling steve the other day how i would rock a set of 15" rims that he sells on that thing.

Re:My New Ride... (return of the fez?)
 

to bad SB1's use a 4x120 bolt pattern which is literally unheard of, so no bling blingers on this car. :-\

Re:My New Ride... (return of the fez?)
 

that car is pimp, i bet u can pick up a bunch of chicks in that thing! ;D

Re:My New Ride... (return of the fez?)
 

Ya' you pull up in that thing and panties will be straight droppin.

Re:My New Ride... (return of the fez?)
 

Make sure to leave the bungie cord seats in, the ladies love them.

Re:My New Ride... (return of the fez?)
 

theres a rumor of a guy out here with a 78 that has a B series welded in i might be able to get more info.but like you said i probably wouldn't put it top priority.

Re:My New Ride... (return of the fez?)
 

ya jeff jackson racing use to mod those thangs for road racing.i remeber reading a big mod for them was to swap the head form a canadian civic it has a better port design and layout and it makes the engine run alot cooler just an idea

Re:My New Ride... (return of the fez?)
 

auto x :)

Re:My New Ride... (return of the fez?)
 

i love this this one :-*

Re:My New Ride... (return of the fez?)
 

reminds me of my '77 accord hatch...cancer and oxidizing paint is commonplace on those...they all rusted from the insides out from being shipped over and the steel was never treated for that and the paints were not multi-stage back then or the clear coats not thick at all.

Re:My New Ride... (return of the fez?)
 

I dont know if its the same guy but I found a website a while ago were a guy had put a b16a1 in one of those.Ill see if i can find it again.

Re:My New Ride... (return of the fez?)
 

nice car jeff

Re:My New Ride... (return of the fez?)
 

i remember seeing pics of that...white paint, fully caged, B18C5, haltech engine managment or something...some crazy guys from new zealand if i remember correctly...

Re:My New Ride... (return of the fez?)

Re:My New Ride... (return of the fez?)
 

Those cars have a fallowing, I used to have one and loved it.( I was 17) I have seen a few with b16a's lots of people still race them autocross style. I think I still have my old aluminium wheels if your interested. PM me if ya need some bling.

Re:My New Ride... (return of the fez?)
 

Looks like it's in suprisingly good condition.

Re:My New Ride... (return of the fez?)
 

that thing looks mint for a 77. but that drivers seat is haggard. that is a definent ----- magnet ;D

Re:My New Ride... (return of the fez?)
 

OMG that thing is pimpin.. you need rims like my avatar (lol) fix the seat and pimp that bitch out.

Re:My New Ride... (return of the fez?)
 

Jackson racing used the cnadian cvcc motors "73 civic hatches (the REALLY small ones) said he ran 14's on a cvcc in a '73 hatch on boost and nitrous. he built a sick turbo one for ice racing in minnesota.

Re:My New Ride... (return of the fez?)
 

Yeah, nice car Jeff.

A friend of mine had one of those but it was an automatic, believe the thing drove as fast forward as backwards.

Anyway, you definatly have to put in a nice turboed engine!!

Re:My New Ride... (return of the fez?)
 

LMAO....I want one ::)

Re:My New Ride... (return of the fez?)
 

on the new SS, there a wagon with a d16a from an 86 Teg, and a covertible with the City motor turbo.

Re:My New Ride... (return of the fez?)
 

here is some pics from a buddy that has the same one.

ha ! betcha didnt think it was boosted huh ! 8)

Re:My New Ride... (return of the fez?)
 

Now that's no way to treat a 77 civic leavin' it in the snow and all. :(

Re:My New Ride... (return of the fez?)
 

Hmm, just shy of the HP of an HF CRX. Probably a bit lighter too. I don't see why it couldn't be a decent little car to drive around in.

Re:My New Ride... (return of the fez?)
 

Damn I actually like!! I would paint it black as hell and have that thing pimped out. Doesnt look like anything would be too expensive to fix either. Good find! Now time for some pimpin chromed out 18's haha.

Re:My New Ride... (return of the fez?)
 

hehe, that thing is awesome! Hey i hope the seatbelts aren't bungie cords too :-X That would make one hell of a sleeper.
