I am selling my 1975 Civic wagon -- somewhat reluctantly, since I've only had it about 8 months. But I have another 40-year-old Japanese wagon and I can't keep both.

This car drives pretty well and is fairly clean inside and out. It has some imperfections in the body, to be sure: a ding on the roof above the windshield and some damage to the front bumper.

If you know these cars, you know that they're not built for high performance. The engine, if I recall correctly, has 52 HP. It will drive at highway speeds, but as a daily driver, it's better for in-town use.

Since I got it, I've had the following work done:

  • Front-end alignment
  • Points and carburetor adjusted
  • Front seats recovered and foam replaced
  • Shoulder belts installed in back seat

It also has a new battery. The engine was rebuilt approximately five years ago. I have the repair records for that and a lot of other work that predates my ownership.

Overall, I'd say it's in good condition, considering its age. The upholstery, carpets, and dash are all good. Here are the known mechanical flaws:

  • The driver's window regulator doesn't work properly. You can still raise and lower the window, but it takes extra effort.
  • It needs one of the strut sleeves replaced. My mechanic told me that he found these listed on-line for approximately $90.
  • The odometer has not worked since I have owned it (so I don't know the true mileage).

When I bought it, the previous owner included a 5-speed transmission, but I've never looked into installing it.

Honda promises all-new Ridgeline within two years

Tue, 10 Dec 2013

Despite an aging design and low sales, Honda has remained committed to its Ridgeline pickup truck. Now, in its first official confirmation of a next-gen Ridgeline, Honda has released a teaser sketch (click to enlarge) of the new truck and promised a debut within two years, as previously reported.
The sketch shows the direction that Honda is planning for its new truck, which appears to ditch the single-piece body in favor of a more conventional pickup truck design. Even with the new design, it's not clear if Honda will move away from the Ridgeline's car-based platform shared with the Odyssey, Pilot and Accord. Sales of the Ridgeline dipped to below 10,000 units in 2011 but have increased steadily over the last two years (including 29 percent so far in 2013) with slightly more than 16,000 units on the year.
As for the current Ridgeline, Honda will wind down production at the Lincoln, AL assembly plant sometime during the middle of next year. The press release for the announcement is posted below.

Honda Civic coupe concept gets Type R render

Wed, Apr 15 2015

In presenting the Civic coupe concept at the New York Auto Show earlier this month, Honda confirmed that the Type R will eventually be coming to North America. Honda just didn't say when, and in what form. But given the announcement's coincidence with the coupe concept's unveiling, it stands to reason the Type R could look less like the current hatchback and more like the two-door that was unveiled. And if it is, it'd probably look something like this. At least, we hope. Created by Wild-Speed.com and posted on the enthusiast forums at CivicX.com, these renderings envision what a Type R version of the Civic concept would look like – with two doors and all the go-fast bits. It may not be bright green anymore, but it sure looks mean – from the aggressive aero kit to the performance rolling stock. It's even got quad exhaust tips like the Euro-market hot hatch, but mounted in the center like the concept's. So what do you think, is this the version Honda should be sending to its American dealers? Sound off in the Comments. Related Video:

Toyota Camry, Honda Civic inventories mounting as US automakers make inroads

Thu, 11 Jul 2013

Two of the hottest-selling cars in America aren't quite as hot as they used to be. The Toyota Camry and Honda Civic are both seeing dealer supplies increase in the face of renewed competition from the much-improved Detroit Three.
According to a report from The Detroit News, the Camry's dealer inventory is 15 days higher than its seasonal average, while the Civic is 25 days above average. Things aren't expected to get better for Toyota and Honda, as RBC Capital Markets analyst Joseph Spak marked the two Japanese offerings as "at risk for reduced output."
The Detroit Three, meanwhile, are seeing supplies dwindle as demand increases, especially for the Ford Fusion, which has seen an 18-percent increase in 2013 sales, and the Chevrolet Cruze, which was second only to the Camry in June 2013 sales.
