The Civic

[Bamboo]

Centre road wreckers has come through again.

 

I've scored a set of genuine bumper over riders and Honda mud flaps.

 

Painting is finished and assembly has started.

 

The goal is the next donuts cruise. I challenge any k powered 'rolla!

Nice score man! :y: You're kicking my ass with the painting :lol:

 

How about an A powered 'rolla? :wink:

[Bamboo]

Nah, I reckon you A boys have me....just :wink:

 

things are happening in the rear.

 

Even though it isn't "hondamatic" any more I thought I'd keep the badge. Manuals just have two rubber plugs where the badge holes are.

 

And it looks more granny

Looks great so far, for a sec I thought those wide mudflaps were the tyres!

 

Keep it up :y:

I was under the bonnet of the '73 silver wreck today grabbing a few things. '73 civics are pretty rare things, a bit like the first ke10s. My turquoise beast is a '74. Until I saw the silver one I always assumed the civic didn't make it here until '74.

 

I noted today that the stickers under the bonnet were different. There is an extra one near the radiator. Luckily the glue is so dry it just peeled off. So I glued it to mine. On closer inspection I realised why this sticker only came out on the '73. Check the Japlish!

I was looking at this picture confused as hell for about 5 minutes.

 

I seriously thought you were running massive fatties and huge camber on the back, turns it it was the mud flaps :blush:

Another weekend in the shed.

 

I went JDM with the front indicators. Cleans up the front nicely.

 

Just gotta put the interior in and off we go. Needs a cut, but it's been so cold the paint isn't hard enough yet!

[TE278U]

keen to have a look at this tomorrow.

 

looking good.

[Bamboo]

Not finished, but getting there.

 

Plenty of faults I can pick on. I can't cut the paint until it hardens up.

 

Still ok from a far, but far from ok!!

 

I'm having fun buzzing around in it again, and it looks a damn sight better than before. the 13's give a heap more traction, all the better for ripping CVs apart.

Looks awesome.

 

What are the headlights you have used?

Spring has almost sprung. The idea was always to spend the shitty winter fixing the civic so I could enjoy it. Melbourne is starting to feel normal again so I took Mrs Bamboo and the fur kids out for a Sunday drive to a park in the hills.
