Welcome! You are bidding on an amazing 1st Generation Civic. The paint is original, the engine is original, I have the original window sticker and owners manual from the original dealer. Everything you can think of mechanically has been replaced and restored. I've taken this car to several body shops because my dream was to restore the vehicle back to showroom condition and they were all of the same opinion that the car is worth more in its present condition than if I were to have it painted. It's won two competitions at the Maryland International Raceway because most people didn't even know what it was. It's virtually rust free, one small area under the front left fender light, two small areas under the left passenger pop out window and that's all. There is no rust under the vehicle, which is amazing for it's age. It's certainly a head turner!!! I've taken much pride in keeping it as original as possible and there's nothing fast and the furious about it. Sounds the same as it did in 1976 and has 52-54 horse power.


The original engine was re-manufactured by Jasper a few years back and only has about 1500 miles on it. The odometer says 55,000 miles but does not go to the hundred thousands. I've had it inspected and some say the mileage is accurate, others say if it isn't then it has a maximum of 155,000 miles. The VIN and Engine ID on the original window sticker match, this is something that you just won't find for a car like this. 
I've owned the vehicle since April 2007 and am the 3rd owner.
The radiator has been re-cored.
The exhaust, to include the muffler has been replaced all the way to the flange.
The brakes were just done, to include the front pads and calipers, the shoes and wheel cylinders and the master cylinder. 
New alternator, water pump, timing belt, clutch, clutch cable, distributor, cap and rotor, battery, tires (12"), horn, NGK spark plugs and wires, ignition coil, all belts and hoses. You name it, it's been replaced and in perfect running condition.

The only thing not original is the stereo which was installed by the previous owner and the carburetor. I have the original carb with the original air cleaner that will go along with the sale. 

I bought the vehicle sight unseen with only 5 pictures to go by for $3750, had it shipped from Washington State to Maryland and have since put 4 times that amount into it. A real Honda Civic enthusiasts dream!!!

I'm a private seller. Please only serious inquiries only. Please do not contact me to help me attempt to sell this vehicle or try to scam me in any way. I do not want to sell the Civic but the times are what they are and I need the money.

Thank you very much for looking and if you have further questions, please feel free to contact me!

Next Honda Civic to get 1.5L turbo

Fri, Mar 13 2015

The low-displacement, turbocharged engine is all the rage these days throughout the auto industry, whether considering the 1.0-liter, three-cylinder EcoBoost from Ford or even Ferrari opting for a downsized turbo V8 in the latest 488 GTB. It looks like Honda might be the next one to follow this trend, and it could happen as soon as the next-gen Civic. "Downsized turbocharging will be the base, even for the Civic," Honda Research and Development boss Yoshiharu Yamamoto said to Automotive News. That included the US, he indicated. "Quite a bit will switch over to turbo, but there will still be some naturally aspirated ones remaining." The engine reportedly is a turbocharged 1.5-liter four-cylinder that offers better fuel economy, lower emissions and the power of a naturally aspirated mill of between 2.0- and 2.4-liters, according to AN. Since the current Civic gets 143 horsepower from its 1.8-liter four that suggests a healthy power bump for the future model. Making the news even more tantalizing, the new Civic with the 1.5-liter turbo could be revealed before the end of the year, according to Automotive News. Honda already confirmed a $340 million investment into its Anna, Ohio, plant to build the engines later this year. Honda first mentioned a 1.5-liter turbocharged four-cylinder in 2013 along with the 2.0-liter turbo now in the Civic Type R in Europe. At the time, the brand said these engines would appear in "a number of future global models." The HR-V in the US was also previously rumored to use the same powerplant.

2014 Honda Odyssey revamp only costs an extra $150*

Wed, 26 Jun 2013

Honda has released pricing on its 2014 Odyssey. Buyers can take home the revamped minivan for $28,825 (excluding an $830 destination fee). That price marks a $150 increase over the 2013 model, but that extra Benjamin and a half buys you a whole slate of updates. Those include a new six-speed automatic transmission in all trims, revised exterior styling and a few tweaks to the instrument cluster and dash controls. Honda's familiar 3.5-liter V6 engine provides 248 horsepower and 250 pound-feet of torque, and the new gearbox helps the van return 19 miles per gallon city and 28 mpg highway.
Of course, those who opt for the top-shelf $44,450* Touring Elite trim will get to play with the new HondaVac vacuum cleaner system. The handheld vac is built into the van's rear cargo area and recharges using the onboard 12-volt electrical system. The little vacuum features a removable debris canister as well as a replaceable filter bag and can run for eight minutes between charges. Check out the full press release below for more information.

Refreshed Honda Civic's first commercial is a minor mea culpa

Thu, 27 Dec 2012

Honda has officially rolled out the first ad for the 2013 Civic. The one-minute spot focuses on a number of clever inventions that improve on old themes, from rocket-powered parachutes to hover bikes and smart window shades, before shifting to the redesigned compact. Set to Santigold's "Disparate Youth," the ad culminates with the phrase, "Things can always be better." This is likely as close as we'll come to hearing Honda say, "we could have done better."
Unveiled at the 2012 LA Auto Show, the 2013 Civic features revised front and rear fascias, nicer cabin materials and an updated suspension just one year after the ninth-generation model debuted. That car received scaling reviews from critics, most notably Consumer Reports, who felt the 2012 Civic was a step backwards for a company known for producing high-quality, economical vehicles. You can check out the full ad for the 2013 Civic below before it debuts during the Rose Bowl.
