    Very nice! But I wouldn't pay you pocket lint for a '76 Hondamatic. It's a two-speed auto.

    Re: Saw this extremely clean 1G at Honda Day

    I agree, Automatic small cars back then were built for owners who did not want to DRIVE them.
    Hence my father has 'inherited' an automatic '82 Subaru Leone Saloon with 64,000km... Absolutely beautiful condition but it's painful to drive unless you are in the right frame of mind.

    But as a result more of these cars sat in their garages with ridiculously low mileages, so their condition still makes them very desirable regardless, and they still stand out in any crowd which is still fun. Just a shame there aren't more 5-speed donors about anymore to transform them.

    There wasn't a single third gen in the show. :/

    My hatch, another hatch, and a coupe were out in the parking lot.

    Well why didn't you put yours there? I know how you feel though, first time I went to the Motoring J-Style show, there were virtually no Hondas. There was another hatch, just like mine, but the interior wasn't even as nice, and mine had some engine work done to it, so while mine didn't have paint, it had things that were different from the other one. I kinda regretted not putting my car in the show, even though it wasn't that great, it really wasn't that bad. That's why I'm doing it at JCCS this year. I figure, fuck it, if nobody likes it, I could care less.

    So you will be at JCCS? Cali Accord Meets is sponsoring me and I was the only one that met the criteria. Glad to hear that there will be at least one other 2g there! I will like your car even if nobody else does.

    Ah! Sorry, no I will be taking my 1g down there this year. I would take the 2g, but the B20A I put in it wore off the cams, so I haven't been driving it. It needs to be rebuilt. But next year, I will take both cars down there!
