Woah those headlight covers are pretty sweet. Are they aftermarket do you suppose? Not that they'd really be hard to make or anything...

Yes I think they were aftermarket, '77-8 a bit more difficult to make covers for since their grille was curved outward in the middle. But at least their lamps were recessed.
Later models lamps protruding slightly from their flat grille so covers had to be spaced forward of the grille & bent back at the top to still fit under the bonnet. Not sure if Australian '81 ( maybe '80?) made things any better with new Halogen lamps with flat lenses & removeable H4 globes replacing the earlier sealed-beams ( not sure if Europe might have received these a year or two earlier).
I thought later grille with early lamp buckets to recess the lamps might be the neatest solution... Though well - fitting covers probably wouldn't be a brilliant idea anyway with the engines cold-air induction ducts drawing from around the right headlamp.

Oh yeah, factory cold air intake does get it's air from there. I wonder if they noticed any difference when they put that cover on there... They do look kinda neat though. I bet you could light them up somehow with some subtle, low lights. Oh man, ricer is coming out... I'm quitting while I'm still ahead.

that foglight kit is damn SIICK!!!
Mom was the original owner, Hondamatic, black, 129K miles. Early model, 11/76 build, #7432. The good: Mechanically great condition and a little rough cosmetically. At 80K miles had valve job, brakes, carburetor, halfshafts. At 115K miles had timing belt, front shocks, tires, alternator, belt, plug wires, tune up.. Just passed California smog today with less than 50% of max emissions. Smog tech even commented it passed amazingly clean for a 32 year old car without a cat. Runs great, always starts. Smog good for 2 years and will register in California through 2009 included in price (about $100) The not so good: Has some rust on the roof, hood, cowl and tailgate. Rear brake cylinders weep so have to top off fluid once per month. Upholstery on seats coming apart, but has good sheepskin seatcovers. The usual dash cracks, radio inop. Some trim parts are a little rough and dent in left fender. Dings on front bumper. So it's a great runabout driver mechanically but a little rough cosmetically. Also a great restoration car, I was going to do it but major job issues prevent doing it. See it here:https://www.3geez.com/forum/showthread.php?t=66800Price: $1000 firm. Car is located in Los Angeles, California. Thanks guys Andrew

1988 Honda Accord LX-i Coupe 123k miles.
That's because it was a 78 model. I think the 80mph mandate was for the 80+ cars. The 1 indicates what gear the car should be in at the speeds indicated by the line below it. That car had the 2-speed Hondamatic it looks like, so 1st goes from 0 to about 50, and 2nd takes care of the rest. All the old Hondas had gear shift points on the speedometer like that. A 4 speed would show the top speeds for all your gears. Kinda handy really.

1977 Honda Accord * Newer Engine * - $1000 (Burien)
Date: 2009-10-04, 5:01PM PDT
Reply to: see below
This 1977 Honda Accord has a 1980 "1800 cc" engine and is a nice little collector's car. It is gold and has new tires. It is a 5 speed . The body is totally straight and the paint still has a good luster. The interior is red and the seats are in fine shape, as is the rest of the interior. Has AM/FM/CD with removable face plate. This is a hatchback model with fold down rear seat.
This is a CVCC model (don't see many of those anymore) but this one is in very nice shape. I even have collector plates on it, so you don't ever have to buy tabs again.
Please call after 12 PM (noon) at 206-243-7324.

Great job on conveying ad information via simple copy and paste. Many times the LINKS were posted and the limited ad life of CL have caused the content to be expired. Kudos to you, man, for taking the extra 20sec to preserve the information for future reference (and purchasers).
Keep up the good eyes and good work.
