- Wed Mar 21, 2012 5:18 am #299104 Hey guys so over the weekend i picked up a 1976 honda civic, 4 speed manual transmission. It came with the owners manual for it.

So this little thing i saw at the junkyards about 5 or 6 months ago and I had told the guy to save it for me, so I bought it this weekend for 600 dollass
It honestly isnt in the best shape but the engine turns over and it works

- Wed Mar 21, 2012 3:38 pm #299139 Thanks guys

Yeah it was pretty good for 600.

Plans for it are to return it to a completely stock, as if it was fresh off the line status.

The interior is complete for the most part, but the front seats are just straight up shredded, but they will be re upholstered, all of the original wheels came with it, weather stripping is shit, and it has rust on it, patches of rust but none the less rust,the rear seats are in great condition, I will be taking apart the interior today, and will post pics at the end of the day.

- Thu Mar 22, 2012 12:51 am #299246 Thanks
well the floor board on the drivers side feels flimsy so I am going to have to get under the car and take a look at it.

Does anyone know where i would be able to find some missing parts for this car, other then a salvage yard????
